Why CEBS is Your Best Source for Benefits Education

1

CEBS graduates are professionals who have earned the preeminent designation in employee benefits by passing a series of rigorous courses and examinations directed and developed by International Foundation academic partners, the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania and Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia.

2

CEBS courses are focused and take an in-depth approach to plan design, funding and administration of group health and retirement benefits. Participants don’t just memorize a textbook. This comprehensive, accelerated, application-based education allows them to put their knowledge into action immediately, providing a more efficient and effective way to serve clients or plan participants.

3

Companies, organizations and people respect those who have earned the CEBS designation. CEBS graduates are highly sought-after professionals who are critical thinkers who solve problems and communicate solutions. Companies look to CEBS graduates to be leaders—they’re not in the back room: they’re in the boardroom. Their knowledge, skills and competencies carry over to where your organization operates—now and in the future.

CEBS graduates have also attested to a Professional Code of Conduct and a Continuing Professional Education (CPE) requirement. Many graduates and students join the International Society of Certified Employee Benefit Specialists (ISCEBS). The Society offers a wealth of continuing education, volunteer and professional development resources and opportunities—empowering CEBS graduates with the tools they need to grow, advance and give back to their profession.
