Link or unlink an MCP ID to or from a partner organization
Summary
An individual who is associated with a partner organization can link their MCP ID to the organization. The partner organization meets competency requirements by having individuals with linked MCP IDs associated to the organization—the MCP ID brings the associated exam and certification credentials to the associated partner organization. An MCP can be associated to the MPN memberships of multiple organizations, but his or her MCP ID can only be linked to a single MPN membership at a time. The MCP ID contributes only to the competency requirements of the membership to which the MCP ID is linked.
The individual who has the MCP certification must perform the steps to link or unlink their own MCP ID from an organization. This is necessary because of Personally Identifiable Information (PII) policies.
Note Do not confuse linking and unlinking of MCP IDs with the association and disassociation of individuals. It is possible for an individual with MCP certifications to associate to an MPN membership without associating their MCP ID to the membership.
