Career development is the key to long-term success within any profession. In a rapidly changing field like business-to-business (B2B) credit, professional advancement is essential. Yet not all professionals know how to advocate for it, and not every organization prioritizes it.

Without meaningful support, both professionals and organizations risk missing opportunities for growth. With the right resources and determination, credit professionals can take ownership of their careers while contributing to the success of their organizations.
