  • For anyone who has tried to earn the CHFP certification the old way with the old paper binders, the current online delivery method is 100% better. The content is relevant and the flow of the content and information is easier to retain for certification. So if you’ve had a less than pleasant experience in the past, I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised. If you’ve had no experience at all and are sitting on the fence, don’t be afraid to jump in.
