Tips for Starting a Professional Certification Business in Virginia
- Pick a certification with employer demand, not just popularity. Check job postings in your target field. If employers list it as required, the ROI is proven.
- Exam fees run $200-$800 for most professional certifications. Add $500-$2,000 for prep courses. Budget for one retake.
- Continuing education requirements keep you paying after you pass. Most certifications require 20-40 hours of CE every 2-3 years at $200-$600.
- Some certifications require supervised experience hours. Check prerequisites before you start studying. PMP needs 4,500 project hours. CPA needs 150 credit hours.
