Information About Classes At Wharton


All courses are subject to adequate enrollment.

The CEBS program includes the courses listed below and their corresponding examinations. These courses may be taken in any order that meets your personal needs, educational background, or work experience.  However, unless a candidate has an understanding of the basic qualification requirements for retirement plans, it is suggested that he or she take RPA1 prior to RPA2.   The CEBS program also offers candidates the opportunity to earn three distinct designations:  Group Benefits Associate (GBA), Retirement Plans Associate (RPA), and Compensation Management Specialist (CMS).  Each designation requires the successful completion of the examination for each required course.  For more information on these designations, see the CEBS Program's Catalog of Information or  www.ifebp.org.
