How we calculate certification ROI

Annual uplift uses an industry-calibrated salary-impact multiplier applied to your current base. Payback divides the cert cost by the annual uplift; lifetime ROI compounds the uplift over 20 years at 3.5%. The Certification Score weights uplift relative to the Legal Operations Manager median to surface the highest-leverage credentials first.
