Certified by the American Society of Pension Professionals and Actuaries - 1999

ASPPA’s Certified Pension Consultant (CPC) is the actuarial and pension management profession’s capstone—the benchmark for leaders in pension governance and strategy. Earning it demands serious chops: multi-year experience, prerequisite credentials, completion of advanced CPC modules, and a proctored comprehensive exam followed by biennial continuing education and ethics obligations. The curriculum’s breadth and analytical depth rise to master’s-level rigor, enabling its recipients to brief boards, steer policy, and resolve high-stakes issues with prudent-expert confidence. Recognized across the actuarial industry as ASPPA’s highest credential, CPC stands at the summit where trust, technical mastery, and leadership meet. Having earned this credential made it possible for me to advise the United States congress on all socio-economic and investment matters affecting society at large.
