🎙️ On today’s episode of NACM’s Extra Credit podcast … Automation not only helps with staffing shortages, but it can attract the new generation of credit managers.

The goal for B2B credit managers is to wisely offer credit to customers, minimize nonpayment risk and foster business relationships. It is through NACM’s Professional Certification Program, that credit professionals are able to learn or re-educate themselves on various aspects of trade credit, becoming a more efficient credit leader in the process.

B2B trade credit professionals are not confined to any one set of responsibilities or one single role. It’s a profession that branches out into multiple areas of work. Even for those who did not start out in the profession at the beginning of their career—credit has opened doors for new opportunities. Through NACM’s Professional Certification Program, credit professionals have the tools they need to explore more about their passion and learn new skills.

📃Without sufficient and accurate job information, a company’s ability to secure payment through a mechanic’s lien or bond for their projects may be in jeopardy.

Growing in your career means always striving for more. It means growing in your knowledge and skill set that will make you an asset for any company you work for. That is why NACM established the six-level Professional Certification Program for credit professionals to learn and sharpen their skills, further enhancing their credibility both in their company and their field.

NACM’s Professional Certification Program provides six quality levels of education for credit professionals either seeking new skills or sharpening the skills they already have. And for Angela Dixon, CBF, CCRA, lead credit underwriter at Cary Oil Co., Inc. (Cary, NC), earning one certification was just the beginning of her designation journey.

At NACM, we pride ourselves on the professional advancement of our members. By providing them with opportunities to learn, grow and succeed, our members can not only improve but add value to the B2B credit profession—which is why NACM established its’ six-level Professional Certification Program, allowing credit professionals to widen their credit knowledge and skills, significantly improving their performance at the workplace.

Earning designations are not limited to those who are new to the industry. Whether advancing your career, expanding your knowledge on basic information or learning new skills, NACM’s Professional Certification Program helps credit professionals with career growth.

In B2B credit, business and law go together. Developing skills in business law helps credit professionals navigate complex legal environments, mitigate risks, protect assets and foster ethical conduct. Timothy Van Natta, CBF, clinical assurance division chief at California Department of Health Services (Sacramento, CA), just earned his Certified Business Fellow (CBF) designation through NACM’s six-level Professional Certification Program.
