The Housing Credit Certified Professional (HCCP) is a specialized credential for developers, property managers, asset managers, state housing agency professionals and others working in the affordable housing industry through the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program. To earn the HCCP credential, candidates must complete a 10-hour LIHTC training course, typically through one of numerous HCCP distributors. Following this training, HCCP credential candidates must take and pass the HCCP exam — which is offered via a distributor — and also meet the other requirements noted below.
