Windy City Summit is proud to offer CTP Exam Preparation Courses at no extra charge to all registered attendees.  We recognize, as do most treasury professionals, that the Certified Treasury Professional (CTP) designation is the benchmark of competency in the treasury and finance profession. We want to CTP candidates successfully pass the exam, so Windy City Summit offers eight specific sessions taught by Dr. DJ Masson.  These sessions provide valuable education and insight on taking the exam, including an overview of CTP math, detailed handouts for each session and tips to overcome the “fear factor” for CTP candidates.

Past attendees have glowing reviews for the CTP review sessions and Dr. Masson:

• “I attended the CTP prep courses and DJ Masson was great!”
• “This was my first time attending the Windy City Conference. I am considering taking the CTP exam. I thoroughly enjoyed the sessions especially the CTP ones. The professor was fantastic! I do not have a negative thing to say about the education sessions.”
• “I attended to sit in on the educational track for CTP Exam preparedness and found DJ Masson very informative and engaging.”

These opportunities to expand your treasury education are available at the Windy City Summit. This year, you can earn up to 12 CTP credits.
