Passing the Floodplain Manager Exam After 3 Tries as an Electrical Engineer With Chris Moe

Think Floodplain Management is only for Water Resources Engineers? Those already working in water- and flood-related fields? 🤔 Well, this interview with Chris Moe will make you rethink that. 👇

Chris is an Electrical Engineer by trade who entered the public sector many years later doing building inspections and was encouraged by his boss to go for the CFM® exam to boost his career.

After two failed attempts studying by himself, he almost gave up on that goal, but didn’t. He decided to get back on his feet and come back stronger…now with a brand-new approach for his third (and last) try with our review course. 💪

In this episode he dives deep into this journey. From what most people misunderstand about the CFM® exam and the biggest mistake he made that you need to avoid…all the way to why this exam is more than just a credential if you work in the public sector.

If you work in city and town planning, emergency management, local floodplain administration, insurance, or anything like that, the CFM® Exam is for you — and this episode is packed with real talk and practical tips from someone who’s been there…without a civil background. 😮
