Testing Sessions
CDFM Study Room: 360
The CDFM Study Room provides a place for testing candidates to review their study materials in a quiet space away from the PDI hustle and bustle. As such, please mute your cell phone and refrain from talking in the study room.
CDFM Testing Room: 370
Please show up outside the testing room 10-15 minutes before your testing start time with a valid, government-issued, photo ID. All personal items, including study materials, jackets, purses, smartwatches, and cell phones (turned off) must be placed against the testing room wall. No cell phone or calculator use is allowed in the testing room.
CDFM Reception
Those who earn the CDFM at PDI are invited to attend the CDFM Reception. We recommend submitting your VFME form before attending PDI, so passing the exams is the last of the requirements.
