HOW WE DEVELOP THE DSFP EXAM

CMSSA  has undertaken a groundbreaking endeavor to develop exam content that accurately reflects the current practice of financial planning, through an extensive and multi-method study with experts in Finance, Blockchain and Energy Industries. This research project is one of the largest in America pertaining to digital assets and sustainability knowledge base; it is led by experienced researchers who guarantee the reliability, validity and legal soundness of each test result.


The CMSSA employs the assistance of volunteer professionals to craft their exam. These individuals, aptly referred to as Subject Matter Experts (SMEs), serve in two capacities: item writers and reviewers; additionally, members of the Council on Examinations—which is an assemblage with considerable experience concerning DSFP exams—give final review and approval for all test queries.


The pass rate for the exam is established through a curve, in which DSFP professionals pinpoint the minimal competence needed to pass. CMSSA does not pre-determine or set an exact percentage of questions that must be answered correctly on the exam.
