Demonstrate Your Abilities as a Payments Risk Expert
Our world is changing, and so is what it takes to succeed. It is not enough to master risk management for one payment type. The APRP credential demonstrates that you, or your employees, have mastered the complexities of risk management for ACH, check, wire, debit, credit and prepaid cards, as well as emerging and alternative payments. Effectively managing payments risk is crucial for organizations that provide payment services, such as financial institutions, solution providers and processors, businesses and other end users.
Benefits of Becoming an Accredited Payments Risk Professional
Earning your credential as an APRP has a wide array of benefits. As an individual, your accreditation demonstrates to your employer that you’re committed to the profession, which can provide opportunities for personal career growth. Once you have your accreditation, you’ll become the “go-to” expert in the critical and nuanced areas of risk management across payment types. For a financial institution or company, it validates to regulators and examiners that you are committed to risk management and regulatory compliance.
