Trying to decide whether getting my (FFC) Financial Fitness Coach Certification is worth the time and money investment. I've been doing research on "FFC" and the salary data is all over the place.
Some sources say it adds $5-8k/year on average, others suggest it's more of a requirement to even get considered for certain roles now rather than a pay bump.
Has anyone here seen a direct salary impact from getting FFC certified? Or is it more of a "required to apply" thing in your industry now?
Also — how long did the whole process take from starting to study to passing? And what was the exam fee in your state/country?
Trying to do a real cost-benefit before I commit 4-8 months to this.
Quick data point: I spent 7 weeks studying, 1-3 hours a day, and passed with a 80%.
The section on FFC exam took me the longest to feel confident about. Eventually I just drilled practice questions until I could answer them without hesitation.
What testing center did you end up booking? Some of them have much shorter wait times than others right now.
