- FFC validates and certifies your hours (commit history + mentor certification).
- Request your FFC documentation and self-report it to ISACA.
FFC certifies the hours and activities a volunteer completed. Acceptance of those hours toward any certification is governed solely by the issuing body’s current rules, which the volunteer is responsible for following. FFC is not an accredited/approved CE provider for these bodies.
Military? You may also qualify for the MOVSM
Many ISACA holders serve in the military. The same volunteer hours can count toward the Military Outstanding Volunteer Service Medal.
