Build your career with the growing demand for skilled compliance officers! Section 24 of the Revised Corporation Code that took effect on February 23, 2019 mandates corporation vested with public interest to elect a compliance officer. This role must be separate from a corporate secretary. Furthermore, you can level up for a career promotion to have a rank of senior vice president in an organization based on Section 1.6 of the Code of Corporate Governance for Publicly-Listed Corporations.

This eleven-session certification course is to equip compliance officers with the necessary knowledge and skills to cope and succeed in addressing the stricter regulatory environment now being faced by all organizations. Enroll and be one of the first Certified Compliance Officers!

Those who will finish and pass this course will be conferred the title of "Certified Compliance Officer" and could use the post-nominal letters "CCO". Example: Juan dela Cruz, CCO
