In an effort to further promote the objectives of the MPPA, effective January 1, 2006, the Maryland Public Purchasing Association, Inc. will offer reimbursement to MPPA members in good standing who successfully achieve CPPO, CPPB or C.P.M. certification.
Reimbursement will be limited to candidates who pay for the certification examinations themselves with no financial support for the exam fee from their employers. Candidates will be reimbursed for the exam fee only.
Upon successfully obtaining the certification, candidates must submit the application for reimbursement to the Recognition Chairperson.
Reimbursement shall be limited to one exam per member per calendar year. Members should request reimbursement within eight (8) weeks of obtaining their certification. Upon receipt and review of the required documentation, the Recognition Chairperson shall request reimbursement of the member from the Treasurer.
If reimbursement is denied, the member shall be so notified in writing by the Recognition Chairperson as the reason(s) for denial.
The Recognition Chairperson shall maintain a record of all member reimbursement requests and shall report such to the Board of Directors.
