Does anyone have the CFF (Certified in Financial Forensics) credential? Has it opened any doors?

hi there, sorry I do not have a CFF, but if you happen to be in the financial services space, I can speak to CAMS, which does open doors into the AML and financial crimes space. from my personal experience, either as (1) recruiters reaching out for compliance analysts/officer type roles or (2) helping your resume stand out from other applicants when applying for a compliance role

I was wondering if the review course “CPE Self Study Course” for the CFF was enough preparation to study and pass the CFF exam. The CFE review course was enough and like if you get a question wrong it explains it well so that when it comes up in a different way in the real exam you can still get it. But when I saw the outline for the CFF material and there seems to be a lot of topics so I was wondering if the review course was sufficient considering this exam is also multiple choice. Thanks!
