With the number of IRA professionals increasing, a need to establish a high standard of knowledge and competency was recognized. Consequently, professional certification programs were established for those people who have IRA compliance and/or operations responsibilities. These programs, called Certified IRA Professional (CIP) for credit union professionals and Certified IRA Services Professional (CISP) for banking professionals, are a prestigious designation that earns an individual the national recognition as an IRA professional that has achieved the highest standard of expertise and excellence in IRA knowledge.

To help IRA professionals prepare to sit for their certification exam, BISYS® has developed intensive comprehensive IRA training programs for financial institution professionals, entitled the IRA Institutes. These programs integrate extensive IRA knowledge, objective-based training methods and practical applications of the rules to create the ideal learning environment. These courses are the ideal preparatory program for attendees planning on taking the Certified IRA Professional or the Certified IRA Services Professional exams.
