A certified cost professional (CCP) is an experienced practitioner with advanced knowledge and technical expertise in total cost management, demonstrating the ability to plan, implement, and communicate TCM principles to stakeholders.

This course covers four modules in the CCP Examination: economic analysis, cost estimation and control, project management, and general skills and knowledge of cost engineering. It covers topics like annual compounding, depreciation, taxes, and break-even analysis. The course aims to prepare for certification by teaching topics at the level of remembering, understanding, and applying.

In Proxima, the course will employ lectures, discussions, exercises, and cooperative learning, focusing on trainee project scenarios and qualitative and quantitative methods for decision-making in project management problems and culminating in a comprehensive assessment.
