Unexpectedly valuable
Having the knowledge within the financial real is one thing. Learning how to present it in a manner that is measurable and beneficial is another. This is what NFEC is about.

Professional Program
I reviewed several coaching software programs. NFEC was by far the most professional and comprehensive. Having different learning styles available makes it fun and interactive. I'm excited to finish the program and start educating others through financial consulting.

NFEC'S CPFC Program Is Outstanding!!!
The NFEC Certified Professional Financial Consultant Training & Certification program is a highly coordinated, extremely informative, well designed program with a plethora of professional materials, current industry standards and research data. Additionally, the training requires development via case studies and practical live applications of financial coaching methodology and techniques. NFEC's resources are impressive and effective not only for CPFC students but for use by their future clients as well. This certification training program has truly been quite a rewarding experience!

I strenuously recommend the CFEI programme to beginning AND seasoned professionals
I strenuously recommend the Certified Financial Education Instructor certification course to those who are providing, or are considering providing, financial literacy instructorship, or even to the most seasoned finance professional.
2. I am a CPA, Certified Internal Auditor, Certified Fraud Examiner, Certified Nonprofit Professional, and Certified Nonprofit Accounting Professional (among others) with 40+ years of worldwide experience. Yet, I i learned a tremendous deal from the CFEI programme in a way that I never had.
