The New Rules of Earning Professional Certification and Professional Credentials

By Attending Business Schools with National Accreditation, you may become Certified as a: Project Manager – Financial Planner – Management Consultant and as a Certified Financial Analyst

By the New York Gazette ®

For hundreds of years colleges and universities have offered diplomas, degrees and certificates, but none of them have historically conferred a certification or professional designation in finance, business, or management.

Over the last 100 years, many students have had to spend several years after graduation to complete an unaccredited certification program that was redundant to their college degree courses and exams that they had already taken at an accredited institution.

No longer is this the case. Under the new rules, you can enroll in an ACBSP accredited business school and take a specialization that allows you to become certified.  See the New Legal Rules:  http://gafm.org/ACBSP.html

Here are some examples of how Certification through College Courses works.

If you major in finance, you can apply after college for the MFP Master Financial Planner ® designation.  www.GAFM.com

If you major in project management, you can apply after college for the MPM Master Project Manager ® designation. www.CertifiedProjectManager.org

If you major in human resources, you can apply after college for the CHR Certified in Human Resources ™ designation.  www.CertifiedProjectManager.net

If you major in economics, you can apply after college for the ChE Chartered Economist ®  designation.  www.GAFM.org

If you major in banking or investments, you can apply after college for the CWM Chartered Wealth Manager ® designation. www.AAFM.org

The GAFM Global Academy of Finance and Management ® is the first certification body in the world to offer certification, charter or designation to graduates of top business schools who have completed the relevant exams and degrees at a government recognized educational institution.  The GAFM is TUV Accredited in Europe, ISO Certified 9001,  and has certification standards agreements with the CHEA and ACBSP.

If you have attended any of these schools and majored in banking, economics, finance, marketing, accounting, financial planning, or other related areas, you may be eligible for certification if you have 3 years of work experience.
