Providing a Standard of Excellence for the Grant Profession
About us
The Grant Professionals Certification Institute (GPCI) administers the nationally recognized Grant Professional Certification (GPC) credential to grant professionals who meet eligibility requirements and successfully demonstrate proficiency in the required competencies. The GPC certification is based on rigorous standards and ongoing research to meet the real-world demands of grant professionals. GPC-credentialed grant professionals demonstrate excellence in the grants profession and, on average, report higher earnings than those without the credential. GPCI is the only grants agency to be accredited by the National Commission of Certifying Agencies (NCCA), which provides third-party validation of the GPCI program and processes.
