Number of Master Code Professionals continues to grow

January 4th, 2021
by Tara Lukasik
  • Quick Hits

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. By becoming a Master Code Professional, the highest level of certification in the Code Council’s program, you can increase earnings and advance your career. The Code Council has certified thousands of individuals, but only a select number have attained this high level of achievement.

Last year, 38 select code professionals achieved the prestigious Master Code Professional designation, including the following nine individuals from the fourth quarter of 2020:

 

Jurgen Betz of Ormond Beach, Florida, United States

Sean Carlstrom of Shelton, Washington, United States

Melvin Corredor of Wellington, Florida, United States

Kenneth Eddins of Mobile, Alabama, United States

Harold Ivery of Canonsburg, Pennsylvania, United States

Shawn Lippy of Hillsboro, Oregon, United States

Francisco Lourenco of Washington D.C., United States

Robert Polanco of Plugerville, Texas, United States

Cory Warner of Port Matilda, Pennsylvania, United States

 

“The Master Code Professional certification is the pinnacle of all Code Council certifications, representing a level of effort, knowledge and dedication that elevates not only the individual achieving it but the code official profession as a whole,” said Code Council Chief Executive Officer Dominic Sims, CBO.

To become a Code Council Master Code Professional, a candidate must first pass 10 core Code Council exams plus an additional number of elective Code Council exams. Typical Master Code Professionals hold 17 or more Code Council certifications. To become a Master Code Professional, certified individuals must complete an additional 60 hours of Continuing Education Units every three years to maintain active status. Master Code Professionals are typically responsible for all technical and management aspects of code enforcement with duties that range from the management of a code enforcement department to the supervision of inspectors and plan reviewers.
