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 Supply Chain Analyst median to surface the highest-leverage credentials first.
