PEP covers implementation planning, business case development, stakeholder engagement, supplier enrollment strategy, and building a Payment Economics function within your organization. Curriculum maps to Book Two and Journal Issues 11 through 25. Designed for practitioners ready to drive measurable results.
Lead at scale. PES addresses enterprise-wide Payment Economics strategy, cross-functional program governance, organizational design, technology evaluation, and executive reporting. Curriculum maps to Book Three and Journal Issues 26 through 52. For leaders building Payment Economics as a strategic capability across the organization.
