Why is being a CTP important

The CTP designation provides evidence of an individual’s commitment to the turnaround and corporate renewal industry and also attests to a level of expertise that non-certified professionals may find difficult to prove. Completing the CTP certification process provides a corporate renewal professional with a solid foundation to operate successfully in the industry and could very well enhance future earning power. To become certified is a rigorous and challenging process, but earning the CTP designation is significant - a demonstration of the highest level of professional achievement and commitment - and a source of pride and personal accomplishment.
