CFACP™ CREDENTIAL

CERTIFIED FEDERAL ASSISTANCE COMPLIANCE PROFESSIONAL SPRING 2027 LAUNCH

You Don’t Just Manage Compliance. You Lead It.

The CFACP™ credential is designed for experienced professionals who operate at the highest levels of federal assistance compliance. This is not an entry-level certification. It is a professional distinction for those who can interpret complexity, assess risk, and drive compliance strategy across programs, funding streams, and organizations.

Who This Is For

The CFACP™ is built for professionals who already live in this space:

  • Grants & compliance leaders
  • Internal auditors & oversight professionals
  • Program and financial managers
  • Monitoring and risk assessment specialists
  • Consultants supporting federal funding

If you are the person others go to for answers…this was built for you.

What the Credential Represents

Earning the CFACP™ demonstrates that you can:

  • Interpret and apply 2 CFR 200 in complex environments
  • Evaluate risk across recipients, programs, and funding structures
  • Align policy, process, and operational reality
  • Translate audit findings into actionable strategies
  • Lead compliance conversations with confidence and authority

This is about judgment, not memorization.
