How your FFC hours count toward EC-Council

  • CountsTraining received: Webinars/seminars 1 credit each; training received counts.
  • CountsTraining delivered: Teaching a new course = 21 credits.
  • Does not countDomain-relevant work: No clear generic-volunteering category — likely not eligible; verify in the ASPEN portal.

Note: EC-Councilonly credits volunteer work that is relevant to the credential's profession — generic charity volunteering does not qualify.

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 EC-Council holders serve in the military. The same volunteer hours can count toward the Military Outstanding Volunteer Service Medal.
