Now that you have achieved the CCBA® or CBAP® designation, you are ready to start looking further forward into your career. One primary goal should be to look at ways to effectively increase your earnings. 

Readers will now have skills for gaining an increase, which is neither a quick nor a passive process. Remember that the fear of failure we all foster is elaborated in our minds, and should not prevent you from taking action to realize your life's dreams. You first need to work on providing more value, building open lines of communication between you and your manager, and actively pursuing this goal in collaboration with your management and organization. You now understand the perspective of your employer and direct line manager, which enables you to create a clear milestone-based plan to achieve your goals more effectively.

And, finally, all the best for the next stage of your career, and well done for being successful in achieving your CCBA® or CBAP® designation.
