Program Overview: Setting Expectations
Before diving into the certification programs, it’s important to set realistic expectations. Both the CPO and AFO are designed to provide you with a solid foundation of knowledge, but they do not instantly make you an expert. Expertise comes with years of experience in the field, and the two-day class is just the beginning. See our class schedule HERE.
Don’t hesitate to ask for help whenever you need it. As your instructor and consultant, I am dedicated to assisting you even after the course ends. Reach out to me via email ([email protected]) with any questions or concerns you may have. Together, we can ensure that you start your career on the right foot or further excel in the industry.
Test Overview: No Need to Stress
The certification program culminates in a test, which can sometimes cause anxiety. However, there’s no need to worry. The test consists of 50 multiple-choice questions, including a few math-related questions. It is an open-book test, allowing you to reference the course materials, handouts, and personal notes.
You have three hours to complete the test, providing ample time to carefully consider each question.
