The Best Course for teaching Financial Literacy
If you are looking for a course that will take you through ALL aspects of teaching/educating others towards proper Financial health, this is it! I could not have designed it better. They provide FULL training, all templates and documents you may ever need - including surveys, handouts, power points, visuals and various reports.
I paid for another finance coaching course, which costs a lot more, and it did not provide even 10% of what the NFEC provides. It is, in short, excellent.

Worth you time and money!
As an accountant, I thought I had a good grasp on teaching financial literacy, but NFEC has provided me with so much more than I could have imagined - from teaching methods to data collection, not to mention subject knowledge that I would not have thought of including prior to the classes. The program is well-designed, easy to navigate, and engaging. The resources alone are worth the investment. I highly recommend NFEC to anyone who wants to teach financial literacy.

NFEC Builds Confidence Among Financial Wellness Program Developers
Creating a financial wellness program for a university is quite a feat. It is especially difficult when the demand is made of one individual. This program outlines every step to ensure successful design, programming, measurement (pre and post), and reporting The resources provided guides me through the process of reporting to ensure continued funding. This is important given the financial challenges faced by universities as a result of COVID-19. Since this is a new program its value must be justified. NFEC enables me to do so in an informed manner.

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.
