2,000th Certified Regulatory Vendor Program Manager (CRVPM®) Completes Course

OCEAN, N.J., Dec. 4, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The 2,000th Certified Regulatory Vendor Program Manager (CRVPM^®) completed the industry's leading certification course for vendor program management, setting another milestone for Compliance Education Institute and the financial services industry. 

"Taking this course has truly inspired me to work towards elevating our current program to the highest level of standards!" stated Cathy Roschinsky, CRVPM number 2,000. "The courses are very highly recommended! I'm excited knowing the knowledge I've gained from this course will enhance our program."

"I wrote the industry's first certification course for vendor program management in 2013 in order to help educate those who were tasked with building and managing vendor management programs," noted Mick Kless, CEO of Compliance Education Institute. "But it wasn't to turn their programs into a compliance checklist to make examiners and auditors happy. The purpose was to provide them with the tools they need to build a strong foundation for vendor risk management and program growth. As the certification course spread from the community sector to the largest financial institutions in the world, two Advanced CRVPM courses were released to help transform vendor management programs into an enterprise strategy that delivers value, achieves strategic goals, protects the institution's reputation and protects their customers," continued Kless.
