Successful exam scores of seven different training courses are required to complete the Georgia Certified Purchasing Associate Certification.
Certification is a means to ensure that all procurement professionals have the necessary skills to perform their duties according to the state of Georgia law, administrative rules as outlined in the Georgia Procurement Manual, established workflow and procedures, and the appropriate use of the available tools and applications.

The Georgia Procurement Certification Program allows employees and their managers to plain training activities with a focus on specific career objectives. To receive certification, the employee must take and successfully pass each of the Certification Exams with a passing score of at least 80 points out of a possible 100 points. Certification is valid for five years and may be renewed at the end of the five year period.

She is married to Thurston Clary, and they reside in Americus. She has a son, Jason Wisham.
