The designation of Certified Turnaround Professional (CTP) represents the highest order of professionalism in the turnaround industry. The designation is administered by The Turnaround Management Association or TMA.

The TMA is the only international organization which is dedicated to developing, maintaining and monitoring a program of professional certification for turnaround practitioners.

To become a CTP a candidate must meet stringent accreditation standards involving education, professional conduct and experience which have been developed by the TMA.

Forbes magazine published an article about the CTP in April of 2004 written by Lisa DiCarlo, to quote.

“It takes a grueling accreditation process administered by the TMA a business association established in 1988 to become a CTP. And while the first were given the stamp of approval in 1994, there are still only about 300 worldwide today. It’s a pretty elite club.”

The selection process is indeed grueling In addition to practical experience CTP candidates must pass a rigorous academic program, submit to background checks, adhere to a code of ethics and commit to continuing their professional development.

Complete details of the program can be found on the TMA web site.
