Meet Your CEBS Instructor

Getting started on something as important as earning a credential can be challenging. You are inspired to begin, and it takes perseverance to continue to make progress as you confront unfamiliar content. Many CEBS candidates rely on CEBS Online Study Groups With Instructor Support for extra help on their learning journeys.

CEBS​​ online study groups are an optional educational resource designed to complement the self-study approach. Offered over a 12-week session, online study groups provide structure to your study efforts and are facilitated by established and experienced CEBS professionals.

What does an online instructor do?

Your online instructor has many roles, including:

  • Designing all content and activities in your class to help you retain knowledge and study for your CEBS exam
  • Facilitating live review sessions
  • Monitoring the discussion forum to provide clarification and guidance to learners
  • Creating discussion questions for each module and Benefits in Action Mini Cases to stimulate engagement and enhance learning about employee benefits
  • Sharing his/her real world experience about being a benefits professional
  • Answering questions that students submit via the discussion forum, email and private message.

A Chat With Jeff Billard, CEBS

Jeff Billard, CEBS
Policy Advisor, CAAT Pension Plan
Instructor for RPA 1—Managing Retirement Plans Part 1

How has earning the CEBS designation enhanced your career?

“I’ve worked in the pension industry for a number of years, and understanding the overall context of how various types of retirement schemes relate to and differ from one another has been very convenient. CEBS has provided context for me in conversations with other pension professionals and given me a broader perspective on the plan options available to research and understand further.”

What will benefits professionals learn from taking RPA 1?

“RPA 1 is a great foundation for informed knowledge in the world of retirement; it covers a lot of information, but it’s not so in-depth that it’s inaccessible to someone new to this area of learning.

Even when we’re not new to this world, we often work in a fairly narrow scope of pensions and benefits. For example, I worked at a defined benefit (DB) pension plan that only dealt with members who worked in Ontario. If you asked me questions about a DB plan and what Ontario rules and guidelines applied, I could answer quite well. Before CEBS, if you asked me a question about regulatory requirements for group RRSPs, or the differences in how defined contribution (DC) plans are administered in Quebec vs. Manitoba, I wouldn’t have had a clue where to start!

So RPA 1 benefits not only ‘new-to-the-industry’ students, but it also benefits students who already have worked within the pension industry by sharing some information on areas they may not be as familiar with.”

What has been a recent interesting update to your course?

“I like to try to incorporate any new happenings into my online study group when I can, and pandemic aside, something I find interesting is a recent research paper by Ryerson University’s National Institute on Ageing and the FP Canada Research Foundation.

They found that the average Canadian taking Canada/Quebec Pension Plan (CPP/QPP) benefits at age 60 instead of deferring payments until age 70 can expect to lose more than $100,000 of secure lifetime income. Obviously, some people cannot afford to wait until 70 to take their CPP/QPP for various income or health-related reasons, but for anyone approaching retirement and not absolutely needing to incept their CPP/QPP immediately, they are significantly better off (statistically speaking) deferring these payments as long as possible. The link to this paper is available here.”

What are your best study tips for CEBS students?

“Study.

In all seriousness, though, the Study Guide is incredibly helpful.  It distills a lot of the Assigned Reading into summaries of important points, and provides keywords that can help trigger concepts. Reading the Assigned Reading is a must, but to help solidify some of these concepts, the Study Guide questions are a great way to test your knowledge.

All the Study Tools in the online study group really help, as well.  Whether in RPA 1 or any of the other CEBS online study groups, the interactive games and quizzes can cement more of this information for you.  Never discount asking your instructor for clarification; that’s what we’re here for! I personally honestly enjoy answering questions because it’s a great way for me to think of different ways of explaining concepts to students that are not always the simplest to break down.”

What sort of success stories have you heard from your students? Why would you encourage people to earn their CEBS designation?

“I’ve heard from a few students, who, after finishing the RPA 1 online study group, have reached out to let me know they passed their exams and were very happy about it. If you’re keeping up with the Assigned Reading and study towards the exam, it is achievable. The students who reached out were excited and encouraged to continue their studies for the CEBS certification.

Stronger knowledge of pensions and benefits means that we’re all able to convey how important these things are, not to just the people who have them now, but to family, friends and acquaintances who may be considering positions with varying types of pension and/or benefits or may be considering offering these benefits to their employees. We’re all advocates of different things in our lives, and the more of us advocating for retirement security and job satisfaction due to increased knowledge through CEBS, the better!”

A Chat with Christine Healy, CEBS

Christine Healy, Ph.D., CEBS, PHR, SHRM-CP
Assistant Director of HR, Southern Utah University
Instructor for GBA 1—Directing Benefits Programs Part 1

Christine Healy
How have the knowledge and skills you gained by earning your CEBS designation helped you most in your career?

“Since obtaining my CEBS designation, I tend to use the tacit knowledge built around facts from the content the most. Understanding how benefits intersect and impact an organization’s ability to compete from a financial perspective and a human capital perspective dependent on the strategies employed has proven very valuable to my employers.”

What will benefits professionals learn from the GBA 1 course?

“GBA 1 offers a solid foundation to the world of employee benefits. I appreciate the overview of popular benefits options along with the integration of how they operate for both business and employee viability. The material provides good foundational details on the considerations for setting up, operating and monitoring benefits programs. It is a preliminary course to the more complex world of benefits that is covered in GBA 2.”

How has the GBA curriculum evolved in recent years?

“This course explores legal issues that are implicated by the ever-changing regulatory and legal environment including the IRS, the Treasury Department and DOL regulations. The PPACA is a very interesting and ongoing piece of regulation that has been engaging to follow through the GBA curriculum.”

What are your studying tips for CEBS students in online study groups?

“There are a couple of tips I have for students in online study groups. First, set up a study plan that includes the day of the week you will read the Assigned Reading, the days you will respond to the discussion questions and a system for taking the interactive games and quizzes. Take advantage of all the materials.

With discussion posts, don’t just respond to the instructor’s initial questions; rather, go back and see what other students have posted, too. It is through the experiences of others that we can learn more robustly. Use stories about the concepts to help you learn—even if you are not a benefits professional yet, you can tap into your experience using benefits as an employee. These stories will help you to remember the concepts by giving them a ‘grounded-in reality’ perspective.”

7 Studying Tips for a CEBS Exam

Studying Tips for a CEBS Exam

I’m not the analytical type. I thrive on sensory learning cues—Smells, textures and colors inform my decision on how much oregano to add to my marinara sauce, not a measuring spoon. Much to my chagrin, the Certified Employee Benefits Specialist® (CEBS®) study guides did not come in a scratch-and-sniff option. As I was negotiating my way through assignments such as Designing Cost-Effective Health Provider Networks and Active and Passive Investment Strategies, I had to dig deep. 

Throughout the course, I dedicated several hours each Sunday afternoon to reading the assignments and reviewing the study guide questions. Once I got through all the assignments, about two weeks before my testing date, I took the practice exam.

CEBS Study Partner
Study Partner:
Greta James Van Wonderpants

I never tested well on that first run, but that didn’t bother me. The practice exam would queue up how I did on each assignment, and there was always a pattern—There were a few assignments that I performed spectacularly bad. I would go back and read those pages, often explaining the concept out loud to my faithful study partner, Greta James Van Wonderpants. (She totally got it.) Then I’d take the exam again. I’d usually do much better the second time, but I would still trip on the more abstract concepts. These I would write out in longhand. The physical act of writing helped cement the correct answers in my mind.

Everyone studies differently, so I asked a few of my peers who recently earned their CEBS designation what their studying tricks were. Here’s what they had to say, along with their practical study tips and that little extra boost that helped to ease their testing jitters.

Tip #1: Take the Practice Exam Repeatedly Until You Nail It . . .

“Mine was taking and retaking the tests and quizzes until I knew why the right answer was right and why the wrong answers were wrong. I found that although most questions as they appeared in the practice test were not on the final exam, the information included in the questions and answers (even the wrong ones) often appeared on the final exam. I didn’t take the test until I could get a 98-100% on the practice exams and quizzes.” — Teri Dougherty, CEBS

Tip #2: . . . or Limit How Often You Take the Practice Exam

“I usually only took the practice exam twice. One time a month before to gauge where I was and then once the week before I was scheduled to test. Taking it too many times almost burned me on the first exam because I memorized the test questions and overlooked what wasn’t on the practice exam.” — Rose Plewa, CEBS

“I’d wait until about two days before the test to take the practice exam. And then on the day before the test, I would go over the answers from the practice exam, particularly looking at the ones I got wrong, and review them in connection with the information referenced in the binder and book. I found this to be helpful because it put the questions into context as well as allowed me a chance to review more of the information than just what was asked on the practice exam.” — Adam Abelson, CEBS 

Tip #3: If You Got It Wrong, Write It Down

“I would go through the exam once and write down everything I got wrong and what the correct answer was. Then, I would study off of that and go through the exam a few more times.” — Amanda Wilke, CEBS

“I make a ‘cheat sheet’ with the two or three Key Terms/Concepts that are the most challenging for me from each module. I add a brief definition in my own words and any important information related to the term. I refer to this sheet over and over again to get ready for my exam.” — Christine Vazquez, CEBS

“I would lay my written-out concepts (those that I struggled with) on the passenger seat of my car for the drive to Prometric, so I could grab it at a red light and review if I found myself second guessing something!” — Sandy Tellefson, CEBS

Tip #4: Find a Good Study Partner, Even if They Think You’re Silly:

“My last-minute cramming techniques included having my husband read my flash cards out loud. He had no clue what they meant (he swore he read the same thing 5 times in a row), but it was helpful for me to hear him read the answers. I could then “hear” him during the exam in Prometric.

I’d also read the study guide out loud to my youngest daughter. She would want to have mom snuggle time (she was 4-5 at the time of my last exams) and since she is my last kid, I didn’t want to miss out on that time. So she got bed-time stories about defined contribution plans and target date funds. Again, the auditory learning helped me retain the information. And, I got fun memories of raspberry kisses and ‘momma you so silly’ during the exam.” — Jennifer Mathe, CEBS

Tip #5: Review and Refresh  . . .

“For my cramming technique, I used the two days (well, nights) before the exam to divide the study materials in half. I would reread the first half of assignments on the first day and the second half of assignments on the second day. If I knew an assignment cold, I would read it quickly. If an assignment gave me trouble, I would slow it down and focus on trickier concepts. My thought process was to refresh all of the terms in my mind right before the exam, figuring that exam questions might trigger my memory just enough to score an extra correct answer or two.” — Robbie Hartman, CEBS

Tip #6 . . . . Or Put the Books Away and Open a Nice Pinot

“Study until the afternoon before the exam. Then stop and put everything away. By then you either know it or you don’t and another half day won’t make a difference. Have a glass of wine or a cup of hot tea; go to bed early and rest your mind.” — Rose Plewa, CEBS

Tip #7:  Know That You’ve Got This

“I did a lot of breath work – before studying, during when I felt frustrated or anxious, and before I entered the testing center. Inhale confidence, exhale anxiety and doubt!” — Sandy Tellefson, CEBS

“To get into the testing mindset, I visualize myself passing the exam and I tell myself positive affirmations.  I assure myself that I know the content and that I’m mentally prepared to pass the test.” — Christine Vazquez, CEBS

“I would arrive early so that I could step into the restroom, take some deep breaths and tell myself, ‘I studied hard. I put in the work. I got this.’ It worked for the first exam, and this became my go-to routine for all five.” — Robbie Hartman, CEBS

CEBS Testing Day Playlist Suggestions:

Many CEBSers say they found themselves seeking a certain melody on the drive to the testing center.

“Foo Fighters and Linkin Park would dominate my playlist on my drive to Prometric. Alice Merton’s No Roots dominated GBA/RPA 3, and when I hear that song now I get a smile because that was my last exam to earn the CEBS.” — Jennifer Mathe, CEBS

“On the way to Prometric for the first exam, I listened to the Hamilton soundtrack. It felt like a good, upbeat way to get my brain to wakey-wakey and focus on something other than the exam.” — Robbie Hartman, CEBS

“Every time I tested in December, I would listen to Christmas music on the way to Prometric. And each time it happened that Bing Crosby’s White Christmas, which is my favorite song, came on. And I just knew it would be good luck, and it was.” — Rose Plewa, CEBS

Explore a Career in Employee Benefits

Explore a Career in Employee Benefits

Some children dream of becoming a doctor or firefighter when they grow up. Others know by the time they are in high school they are headed for a career in teaching or engineering. However, have you ever heard a young person say they want to grow up to be an employee benefits specialist or a retirement plans advisor? Neither have we!

These less well-known, yet very rewarding jobs are common in the employee benefits industry. These types of employee benefits careers are predicted to have “average” to “much faster than average” job growth from 2018-2028, according to the Occupational Outlook Handbook provided by the U.S. Department of Labor’s Bureau of Labor Statistics. The Bureau cited increasingly complex employment laws and health care coverage options as reasons for the growth in these careers. The issues of health benefits and retirement readiness affect everyone and are in the news almost daily. Professionals in this industry do the very important work of providing health care and retirement benefits for employees and their families to support their financial, physical and emotional well-being. They are in valuable positions to help people obtain the resources and services they need.

Individuals who end up working in employee benefits come from a variety of backgrounds such as human resources, finance, law, health care, actuarial science, risk management and data analytics.

Many will say they “fell” into benefits without much specialized education or training in this area. They learned on the job and discovered they love being in a role that gives them the opportunity to impact the lives of their colleagues and clients each day. They celebrate the successes and embrace the challenges and complexities that come with this work.

However, they need additional knowledge and expertise to be successful. How do they obtain this? They look to the International Foundation of Employee Benefit Plans for a variety of educational and research resources in employee benefits, compensation and financial literacy. Specifically, the International Foundation partners with the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania and Dalhousie University in Canada to offer the Certified Employee Benefit Specialist®/CEBS® program, which is recognized as the gold standard for employee benefits education. The CEBS designation provides professionals with the specialized knowledge and expertise in both health care strategy and retirement plan funding to think strategically and make decisions confidently for their organization and clients.

There are many components to employee benefits programs, which means a variety of career opportunities. Here are some of the positions in this field experiencing above-average job growth, with general information about their roles/responsibilities.

  • Actuary
    Analyze the financial costs of risk, uncertainty and loss for an organization.
  • Benefits Specialist
    Plan, develop and oversee an organization’s benefits programs.
  • Communications Strategist
    Disseminate information and coordinate educational events related to health care, retirement and workplace wellness plans.
  • Compliance Attorney
    Ensure the organization is meeting all the regulatory and compliance requirements of its benefit plans.
  • Data Analytics Specialist
    Analyze reports on the usage of health care services to determine areas with the largest need for intervention and education.
  • Director, Total Rewards
    Coordinate the team of benefits associates, and oversee the full benefits and compensation package offered to employees.
  • Financial Advisor
    Help individuals manage their finances and plan for their financial future.
  • Global Benefits Analyst
    Analyze and harmonize benefits for employees working for a multinational corporation.
  • Health Services Financial Manager
    Provide oversight on the costs of benefit plans and the impact on the organization’s bottom line.
  • Human Resources Manager
    Plan, direct and coordinate the strategic human capital and administrative functions of an organization.
