GRC Certify Information

GRC Certify is a global nonprofit accreditor of certifications, that is dedicated to helping you demonstrate your understanding of GRC standards and methodologies through professional certification. Our mission is to enable and improve professionals who design, develop, operate and lead the integration of governance, risk management, internal control and compliance activities in their organizations. In pursuit of this mission, we collaborate with the global nonprofit think tank, OCEG which publishes the GRC Capability Model™ that drives the content of our several GRC Professional Certifications. There are several certifications offered by GRC Certify. The foundation of all other certifications is the GRC Professional (GRCP™) certification. The GRCP exam tests a broad range of areas. These areas were determined by conducting an extensive job analysis of over 500 GRC Professionals in June 2010. A GRC Professional is defined as: “An individual that spends substantial time helping an organization achieve principled performance by leading, planning, performing, enabling, integrating or auditing governance, performance management, risk management, internal control, compliance or ethics activities” Participants in the job analysis were asked to analyze over 200 skills and determine their significance to a GRC Professional, a GRC Executive or a GRC Auditor. The job analysis and other research yielded a competency model which serves as a blueprint for the GRCP and other certifications.
