Can anyone provide some guidance to taking the CFE? As in which membership option to choose from followed by when exactly can we take the exam, if the entire amount is reimbursed or not? Just a generic timeline and additional required info. Don’t want to sign up yet if the exam dates are not flexible. Thank you.

Membership and prep course was reimbursed but had to have it approved by counseling family leader. Exam timeline is totally up to you - it’s all online. I think I had 1.5 years to take it after buying the course. The dates depended on what prep course you had based on the date of purchase.

I put it off for a year and then studied and took all exams in a month. I think once you request the exam keys you have a month to take them. Check the ACFE website, everything is detailed out

Thank you for your inputs! I did not know that you get a bonus for CFE in the second year as well!
