CPOC (Certified Procure-to-Pay Operations Certified) and MPOC (Master Procurement Operations Certified) are professional certifications related to procurement and supply chain management, issued by the PCI Security Standards Council (PCI SSC). They focus on the essential skills needed to manage procurement operations effectively and streamline the procure-to-pay (P2P) process. Both certifications aim to enhance a professional’s ability to manage procurement operations efficiently, improve supplier relations, and implement best practices in purchasing and supply chain management.
