Sort By: [Date] [Major] [Rating] Finance  Major Salary, Salary Trend, Satisfaction, Unemployment Average I completed the professional education program for Certified Financial Planning designation. Normally to get the designation, you need 5 classes. Since I had the CEBS designation, CFFP only required I take 3 courses. The coursework came in giant binders and was well-organized and the test covered the coursework exactly. I learned a lot even though the tax laws change every year. The program would be useful for anyone who wants to run their own financial life. The College is very organized and efficient. I can't complain. I will be enrolling in their MS program pretty soon and will only need to complete something like 5 or 6 classes to get the master's because they credit the certificate classes toward the master's. I have looked at biographies of people who are established as financial planners, and many of these people have JDs and MBAs from major major schools. They completed the MS from the CFFP after they got their other degrees. Even though they have fancy degrees from fancy schools, the CFFP gives you the actual ammunition to be armed in the financial planning world. A bunch of years ago I bought the book "Beat the MBAs to the Top". This school will help you beat the MBAS to the top. Also, within the financial planning field, this college is recognized. I mean it's not frickin Harvard, but they get the information to you in an efficient and organized manner and you have ammunition to succeed and the price is right. So there, U of Chicago, Northwestern, and Harvard. Starting Job: General Agent, Preparedness: A+, Reputation: C Have a Question?
