Look for a reputable online program in financial planning that allows you to sit for the CFP as part of your course work - they’re out there. I think Texas Tech, maybe Babson, and several other business schools now offer it. Two birds....
Well, if you intend to get your CFP, a degree in financial planning is the fastest route. If you’re willing to put in the time and work, then a degree in computer programming helps. An awful lot of buy side shops and RIAs use algorithmic investment strategies these days.
I think.... you have to have a college degree to be a CFP. I think..... but I could be wrong.
Correct
Liberty U has a great online program that allows you to get your BA in FP and satisfies educational req. for CFP. Then you just sit for the test.
