“My vice president of procurement really values certification. He wanted the P-Card program to be managed by a certified professional. He wanted that level of trust within the whole organization, so people knew that the person managing that program was bringing real knowledge and experience to the program. So, the value of the CPCP is that when I walk into a room to talk to cardholders or to talk to department leaders about our P-Card program, they look at me as someone who knows what they’re speaking about and they respect the information I’m giving them, the opinions I have about how the program can expand and grow, and the things that we should watch for.”
