The GRC Group's SOX & GRC Institutes Announce Certification "Grandfathering" Program

Recognizing that experience, education, and training serve as the foundation for professional contributions in the realm of governance, risk management, and compliance, The GRC Group (www.grcg.com/grandfathering-application) today announced a "grandfathering" program to award certifications in GRC, SOX, and IT-GRC.

New York, NY (PRWEB) November 20, 2008 -- Recognizing that experience, education, and training serve as the foundation for professional contributions in the realm of governance, risk management, and compliance, The GRC Group (www.grcg.com/grandfathering-application) today announced a "grandfathering" program to award certifications in GRC, SOX, and IT-GRC.

With its premiere training programs and coveted certifications, The GRC Group arrived at the decision to offer its grandfathering provision -- which is in effect until December 31, 2008 -- only after considerable thought. According to Sanjay Anand, Chairperson of The GRC Group, "We want to acknowledge the efforts of professionals to keep abreast of best practices in the field by offering them the opportunity to leverage their education, experience, and training to obtain certifications. At the same time, we are requiring a substantial amount of information and documentation to ensure that only those who are truly qualified receive certifications."

The organization's members have discovered that their GRC Group certifications give them a competitive edge in pursuing employment opportunities or provide them with added value as an asset to their current employers. "We're proud that our certifications continue to be seen as the gold standard in recognizing knowledge of best practices in governance, risk management, and compliance," said Anand.

The GRC Group is offering the following certifications to those who meet the organization's rigorous requirements:

IT Governance (ITG): CITG - Certified in Information Technology Governance and CITGP - Certified Information Technology Governance Professional.

IT Risk Management (ITR): CITR - Certified in Information Technology Risk Management and CITRP - Certified Information Technology Risk Management Professional
