Becoming a Certified Fund Raising Executive (CFRE) opens career doors, including higher earning potential and greater recognition from peers.
If you plan to become a CFRE in 2024, see why now is the time to submit your application.
1. Take Action Today to Earn a Higher Salary in 2024
If you plan to look for a new job in 2024, become a CFRE before you begin your search.
CFREs in the U.S. can earn 5 – 16% more than non-CFREs with comparable experience. In Canada, CFREs can expect to earn, on average, 14% more than non-CFREs with comparable experience.*
Before you negotiate, become a CFRE so you don’t risk leaving money on the table.
2. Don’t Lose Your 2018 Points
All of your 2018 points (except academic degrees) automatically expire January 1, 2024.
3. Don’t Miss Out on the 2024 Test Date You Want
When your application is approved now, you’re eligible to sit for the CFRE Exam in any 2024 testing window. The sooner your application is in, the better poised you are to secure the test date that works best with your schedule and study timeline before they fill up.
4. 2024 Study Groups Now Forming
If you wish to join a study group in early 2024, get the gears in motion now to guarantee your place.
5. Use Expiring Professional Development Funds
If you have Professional Development funds set to expire at the end of 2023, don’t let them slip away. Put them towards your CFRE goals.
