Over 75 Master Code Professionals Named in 2024

The International Code Council’s Master Code Professional (MCP) designation is the highest level of Code Council certification and is the “gold standard” for demonstrating proficiency in the code profession.

Currently, there are more than 900 MCP professionals worldwide, and their achievements are a benefit to the code enforcement profession, as well as their communities. The Code Council has certified thousands of individuals, but only a select number have attained this high level of achievement.

How to Become a Master Code Professional

Obtaining this level of certification requires a commitment to the profession, diverse knowledge of codes and a high level of self-initiative. Typical MCPs hold 17 or more Code Council certifications.

To become an MCP, a candidate must obtain 30 credits by passing the Code Council examinations. The credits are divided into two categories, core examinations totaling 20 credits, and elective examinations totaling 10 credits. Once achieved, an MCP must complete 60 hours of Continuing Education Units (CEUs) every three years to remain in “active” status. 

By becoming an MCP, you can increase earnings and advance your career.
