CMPP Governance

The ISMPP Certification program is governed by the Certification Board of Trustees as required by the Society's bylaws.

Operating semi-autonomously within the ISMPP-elected Board of Trustees, the ISMPP Certification Board is responsible for the appropriate development, evaluation, supervision, and administration of all certification program policies, procedures, and activities. The Board is also responsible for the financial management of the CMPP program.

The Credentialing Manager is responsible for the management of the day-to-day operations of the program. Elections for the Board are held annually. Please refer to the ISMPP bylaws, article X (Certification Board) for details.
