Yes, there are scammers out there but certified credit consultants ARE exempted for this group and providing high quality and honest credit services to the public everyday and in compliance with state and federal laws.

Now here is the problem: there is a great need for credit assistance but where can consumers go for help? There has to be an equal balance between this high demand for service and the ability to find honest help. Well, CCA goal is to help with this balance.

It is understandable and certainly true that a do-it-yourself approach to credit repair is the best way to solve your own credit problems. It is also true that there is nothing that a credit repair agency can do that consumers can not do themselves. However, there is a learning curve for most Americans and many consumers are making costly mistakes in the process. Additional problem facing consumers is not having enough time do all of the paper pushing legwork and doing it right on their own.

Here is the question: Do you understand the credit system? If not, do you have the time to learn how to solve your own credit problem? Or, if you already understand the system, do you still have time to do-it-yourself? If your answer is No from the above questions, why not hire an honest credit consultant? Maybe I already know the answer--It's because you don't know who to trust, right?

Well, It is our mission at CCA to self regulate and help consumers find honest credit consultants that do no harm to consumers and assist them in reaching their credit goals. One that is credit score conscious a company that simply dispute negative trade-lines!

When consumers need a fast approach to navigating the system and solving credit problems, a certified credit consultant (CCC) will be the answer. You will find honest CCC professionals right here, so look no further. Our trade association has strong ethical requirements and a totally consumer conscious policy.

We believe that it is absolutely necessary that consumers are made explicitly aware that most credit problems information is FREE and readily available. Also that there is nothing that a credit repair firm can do that they can't do themselves. However, just like any subject matter, there is a learning curve and many need assistance. No one should have a problem with a consumer willing to pay for clarity and a better way to navigate the system. This is what any good consultant will do in any industry.

What is a CCC?

"CCC" is an individual who has received a board Certified Credit Consultant credential. The CCC credential has come to represent a fundamental competency and adherence to ethical conduct of the credit restoration industry. In dealing with a CCC professional, you can be assured that you are working with a knowledgeable credit consultant who is committed to providing excellent, legal and honest service.

How do one become a board Certified Credit Consultants?

Applicants must go through an online application process to become a board Certified Credit Consultant. Once they apply to the program, they must e-sign a Code of Ethics and Professional Standards and pass a certification exam to become a CCC. Once they have passed the exam, each CCC must pay annual dues and go through a recertification process to maintain their CCC status.

How do I know if my credit consultant is a CCC?

The first step is to check with our online directory on this site. If a member is certified, there will be a Yes by the word Certified? At the bottom of this page, you can search by state, the CCCs in your area. This list is updated in real-time. The next step is to ask to see your consultant's credentials. If your consultant advertises as a CCC they will be listed on our site. It is always a good idea to ask your consultant for their credentials, even if you found their name on our list.

If your consultant is NOT a CCC association member he/she cannot be held accountable to the CCC Code of Ethics and Professional Practices. Please note that we are a virtually new trade association and many members on our list have a great deal of experience who has not taken the exam yet, as time progress, this issue will resolved itself. Just remember that they are still members of our association and will abide by our rules.
