Receive Recognition for Your Expertise!

A National Check Professional (NCP) designation recognizes professionals who have successfully proven a certain level of understanding of the current check payments landscape.  MACHA strongly encourages our members to participate in this new program.  Be one of the first to be recognized for your knowledge and comprehension of check payments. 

 

MACHA recommends that check professionals who are sitting for the 2013 NCP exam attend MACHA's many check related workshops and webinars this year.  Our Educational Package Plans provide an economical way to accomplish this!
