Your Future, Powered by CEBS

The CEBS designation delivers professional expertise supported by researched-based best practices with curriculums developed by the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania and Dalhousie University. You can rely on CEBS to provide the knowledge you need as well as the application exercises that show you how to tackle challenges you will face throughout your career in benefits.


Five courses. Five exams. Four letters that make a statement.

CEBS coursework does more than prepare you to pass an exam—It prepares you to think strategically, make decisions confidently and sleep soundly knowing you’ve done the best you can for the lives impacted by the work you do.

From health care strategy, to retirement plan funding, to contributing to an employee culture that drives business success, benefits pros have meaningful influence on organizational success. Join others on the strategic front line. The Certified Employee Benefit Specialist (CEBS) designation is your bridge.

Without exception, what I learned in each course allowed me to be more effective at work. . . . I was able to work with my internal team, our external consultants and benefits providers in a more informed way.
