WorldatWork Society of Certified Professionals Announces Certification Program Changes

Certified Benefits Professional® (CBP) – U.S.
Designed for today’s dynamic benefits environment, the CBP program provides solid strategies and understanding. The CBP is moving from a required regimen of nine exams to seven streamlined exams. Although Accounting and Finance (T2) and Quantitative Methods (T3) are no longer part of the new requirements for the CBP, the content of these courses has been integrated directly into the courses and exams where they have the greatest relevance. This change allows the certification program to highlight these competencies in the context in which benefits practitioners typically encounter them.
