The Association of State Floodplain Managers' (ASFPM) Certified Floodplain Manager (CFM®) exam will be offered on Friday, December 6, 2019 following the L-273 course. You are not required to take the L-273 course to apply for the CFM Exam. The L-273 course generally aligns with the topics covered by the CFM Exam, but the course does not teach the exam or guarantee in any way that you will pass the exam. DCR is not responsible for the exam, registration, fees, etc. For more information on the L-273 course, including a link to register, please click here.
In order to be accepted to take the CFM® exam, you must submit your completed application along with the appropriate fee to ASFPM by November 22, 2019 (2 weeks prior to exam date). No walk-ins will be allowed unless authorized by the ASFPM Executive office.
In order to take the CFM® exam, you must complete and submit the CFM® Program Application Package to ASFPM. The forms are available on the ASFPM website listed above.
The fee for taking the exam is $100 for ASFPM members and $480 for non-members. You may submit an application for ASFPM membership at the same time as applying to take the CFM® exam ($260 total). If you are retaking the exam, the fee is $50.
