Self-study or Instructor-led Training?

Choose the one that fits you.

You are in control of your educational journey. Whether you choose self-study or Instructor-led training, you’re on the right path to certification.

Are you ready to take your career to the next level? The education you need to gain your Certified Financial Planner® (CFP®) designation or Qualified Associate Financial Planner™ (QAFP™) certification is available for you in just a few clicks.

Picture yourself as a CFP® professional with the tools you need to examine your client’s finances as a whole at the highest level of complexity. Or, imagine being a QAFP™professional, where you provide comprehensive financial planning strategies for clients who have less complex financial needs than those who would seek advice from a CFP® professional. Each certification helps you meet your clients’ needs better than before, and increases their trust in you as a financial services professional.
