I have tried writing to Rick Apostolic ( president of GARP ) on LinkedIn. Ofc, no response.... For comparison, the CEO of CFA and CAIA are very active in LinkedIn and in fact follow the members from their communities. Just another small difference between them and GARP
i am going to send messages to that Rick guy in LinkedIn. I think we should all send messages to him as individuals to hopefully get the attention.I have tried writing to Rick Apostolic ( president of GARP ) on LinkedIn. Ofc, no response....

his LinkedIn name is Rich Apostolik. Make sure to use this spelling if you want to search for him.I have tried writing to Rick Apostolic ( president of GARP ) on LinkedIn. Ofc, no response....

Who are you really hurting by not recommending it to someone ? Only yourself. You worked so hard and paid lots of money for this certificate and now you will go around telling people it is worthless. Just relax , your life will probably not change if you get the your confirmation today or in a year (because of covid) so relaxI'm not gonna chase this person, but I think its fair to make them realize the reputational damage they are causing by not providing any updates (3months+ now). I can't recommend GARP/FRM anymore to anyone in my organization, nor do I see any incentive to re-new GARP membership or attend any events.
You're really drinking that GARP kool-aid aren't you there lil buddyWho are you really hurting by not recommending it to someone ? Only yourself.

Thank you we are just trying to keep each other entertained and less stressedCan we please try to keep the conversation here about work experience. I understand that everyone is frustrated, but there is nothing that can be done to make GARP move more quickly. I have no idea why they are taking so long. Who knows, maybe they are short-staffed because of the pandemic. I agree that their communication has been absolutely horrible, but the current conversation is not helpful. Please continue to reach out to GARP with your concerns. :/
I understand GARP has me completely frustrated and stressed also. I hate that they are putting their candidates through this. It is difficult to feel completely helpless. We always want to help our members, but we aren't able to do anything about this. The lack of communication and transparency is just so unprofessionalThank you we are just trying to keep each other entertained and less stressed
