How did the introduction of the RPF examinations change the PA exam requirements for ASPPA designations?
In 2006, the RPF exams replaced the Pension Administrator exams (PA-1, 2, and 3), and now serve as the foundation for the QPFC, TGPC, QKA, QPA, CPC and FSPA credentials awarded by ASPPA. Those who have passed the PA-1, PA-2, and PA-3 exams are eligible to waive the RPF requirement for those credentials. Please review ASPPA’s examination waivers for other waivers that may be applicable.
