Elevating proficiency in public-private partnerships (PPPs)
Alongside our partners at The World Bank, we are thrilled to celebrate reaching the milestone of 10,000 CP3P Foundation exams sat worldwide.
Part of the PPP Certification Program
The APMG Public-Private Partnerships Certification Program is an innovation of the Asian Development Bank (ADB), the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), the Islamic Development Bank (IsDB) and the World Bank Group (WBG) and part funded by the Public-Private Infrastructure Advisory Facility (PPIAF) with a shared vision of enhancing PPP performance globally.
The program enables individuals to act as informed members of a PPP team by understanding the key principles and modules of PPP projects. It consists of three levels; Foundation, Preparation and Execution.
The Foundation level is the first step to achieving the CP3P Certified PPP Professional credential, the ultimate recognition for PPP professionals. It’s awarded to those who pass all of the program’s three exams. Those who possess the CP3P credential will be instantly recognisable in demonstrating the competencies required to deliver successful PPPs successfully.
Why is it important?
The program and certifications are underpinned by the PPP Guide, the definitive resource on PPPs. It’s a reference manual exhaustive in scope, meticulous in coverage, and unwavering in its attention to detail.
The PPP Guide has become the go-to body of knowledge for thousands of PPP professionals across the globe. Now available in eleven languages, the PPP Guide has been accessed over 1.1 million times.
Those studying the PPP Guide and undergoing CP3P training and certification are better equipped to:
- Effectively source funding for PPP projects.
- Establish tailored and comprehensive PPP frameworks.
- Identify and allocate the government roles and responsibilities within the PPP process.
- Propose optimal procurement routes for PPP projects.
- Structure and manage PPP contracts.
- Achieve maximum Value for Money (VfM) through effective financial structuring.
With the scale, complexity and importance of PPPs requires deep knowledge and expertise. Those with a CP3P credential stand out amongst peers as having the skills and knowledge required for effective planning and delivery of PPP initiatives.
