CFP® Board Updates

The CFP Board Center for Financial Planning recently released great news regarding scholarships provided for CFP® Certification Education.  In 2021, the Center provided more than $300,000 in funds to 80 scholarship awardees.  In total, the Center has provided 180 scholarships, totaling more than $800,000 since the launch of the first scholarship program in 2016.

The Center’s scholarships are key to building talent and creating professionals in the underrepresented populations within the financial planning profession.

For more information on the Center’s scholarships, eligibility and submission requirements, and how to apply — visit CFP Board’s website. The need for scholarships is much greater than the number of available awards.
