How do I prepare for the CFE?
There are several prep methods for the CFE. You will need to focus on these three items:
- Technical knowledge
- Case writing skills
- Strategy
I speak a lot about these items on my YouTube channel and webinars. You can check out my latest webinar.

Case writing skills:

- Know your case inside out
- Integrate throughout the case
Strategy:
