The Management Control professional, or Controller, is among the most valued and in-demand profiles by companies internationally. They have become a vital and decisive figure in companies, helping to overcome and minimize the impacts of economic crises. They have evolved from a purely descriptive and auditing function to being promoters of change, transforming into professionals capable of helping management lead change and guide the company to high levels of development and management.
The Global Chartered Controller Institute, GCCI, aims to be an international benchmark in Management Control, promoting and preserving the role of the Controller in all its breadth as a key profile in 21st century organizations, through its two accreditations: the Chartered Controller Analyst, CCA Certificate® and the Business Analytics Certificate, BAC.
Studies such as those by Robert Walters, Michael Page, or the Hays Recruiting Experts Worldwide Job Market Guide, place Controllers among the most in-demand professionals during the current crisis.
In this context, the University of Piura and the Global Chartered Controller Institute (GCCI) are joining forces to offer the sixth edition of the International Executive Program in Management Control and Data Analytics, leading to the Chartered Controller Analyst (CCA) Certificate®.
