Certification Broadens Professional Contributions at American Express

At American Express, learning and development is a priority for career-minded HR professionals. This is equally important for compensation professionals and American Express is making the Certified Compensation Professional (CCP) designation much easier to attain.

Through its relationship with WorldatWork, American Express is bringing CCP classes and certification exams onsite, so busy working professionals can more easily attend. Classes have been taught in New York, Miami, the United Kingdom and Australia and have included core certification concentrations in Base Pay Management and Quantitative Methods as well as non-core elements such as Mergers & Acquisitions and Executive Rewards.

According to Rand Guida, director of Compensation at American Express, “This allows us to provide targeted training on select topics in many areas of Compensation and Benefits.  It also supports the acquisition of certification at a quicker pace than if employees were to do it on their own.”

Onsite education for the American Express Global Compensation Consulting Team contributes to professional development which in turn benefits the caliber of thought leadership in the company’s human resources organization.
