Professional Development
Why Become a CCM?
CCMs and CMITs show your clients, employers, colleagues, and other stakeholders your expertise in capital program and project management. As a credentialed professional you further demonstrate your ability to manage costs and safely deliver projects on time, as well as:
-
Increase your Professional Marketability (CCMs earn over 10% more than CMs who do not hold the credential!)
-
Display your Leadership and Professionalism
-
Expand your knowledge and Grow your Network
CMAA NCC's Professional Development Committee can help you reach your goals.
