The CEBS curriculum is designed around three specialty areas--group benefits, retirement plans and compensation management. You earn the designations that meet your career objectives.
With the exception of CMS 2 (Course 6), there is no recommended sequence for CEBS courses. You determine the sequence in which you take the courses and examinations based on your personal or professional needs, educational background, class availability or work experience.
