Financial services is great but not enough

I've been in the financial services space for a very long time teaching others financial concepts and had no idea there was much more to learn. Even with my educational background in finance, there's a huge missing piece when dealing with the public and NFEC helped with the missing pieces. Understanding the psychology of learning and what goes into a valuable program where people are actually learning and retaining versus just being presented to was a huge wakeup call for me. I will admit for me it's a long process to complete when there's other obligations to tend to but nothing worthwhile is ever quick or easy. I'm thankful for this program and look forward to learning more.

The National Financial Educators Council provides thorough training that is beyond remarkable! The principles taught and the extensive knowledge gained is invaluable due to the in-depth focus and concentration on getting to the root of financial issues that many people experience that often go unnoticed. I highly recommend this phenomenal training to anyone who provides financial education to others!

Recommend to both beginners and experienced educators.

I am not a beginner in the financial education space, and initially, I was skeptical about whether the program would be useful. However, I was impressed by the quality of the materials, the depth of knowledge, and the resources offered. I would highly recommend this program to both beginners and experienced educators.

Iron sharpens Iron

I have been conducting education seminars for many years. Taking the CFEI course through NFEC has allowed me to highly sharpen my Small Business Credit Survival Boot Camp to deliver not only to the small businesses who attend but to the sponsors/partners who participate. "Iron sharpens Iron" and NFEC is solid Iron. Thank you Team.

Worth the Price of Participation

This program offers an incredible amount of material for the money. It is useful, relatable, and very encouraging. I do, however, wish there was a live virtual or in-class component. I learn much better with other students.

The content in the course is straight forward and to the point. I like the fact that it is not wordy. I must admit that some of the videos and data in the course looks like it was about ten years ago. Although I can pull recent data, I would suggest to update some of the content.

Is this course worth your time and money? ABSOLUTELY!

The training was detailed and covered all possible situations. This program not just addressed money management, it also addresses the emotions around money and how personal finance is personal. The tools and software we are trained on and have access to use as well as the Client questioners, are invaluable.

What a great resource!

What a great resource for both financial professionals and those interested in improving their financial literacy. They use some methods thought provoking and sometimes time consuming methods, but always for the sake of excellence. It has been a pleasure learning from NFEC. They not only master personal finance, but also the psychology of money and learning. This organization has inspired me to expand my business offerings with the inclusion of an educator role plus consideration to service a broader range of clients, not just my specialty clients!

The curriculum for the NFEC training was very thorough, informative and educational. The resources they provide covers everything you can think of from surveys, assessments, activities to make sure you have a thorough plan to offer a successful program, and
how make sure your program meets the needs of the stakeholders and the learners.

Great program!

I have been in the Insurance and Financial Services field for 24 years. I have earned the Distinguished Toastmaster designation which is very detailed to earn. With all of that training and experience, I am still learning techniques and skills. Highly recommend.
