Series 1 – June 2024-February 2025

Series 2 – November 2024-June 2025

Classes are offered for four consecutive days once every 5-7 weeks. This time frame provides students with ample time to read all the materials prior to coming to class. Classes will be held from Thursday through Saturday from 8:30am to 5:00pm, and on Sundays from 8:30am to 2:00pm to minimize time away from the office.

Each series delivers a systematized preparation course that trains financial advisors on how to review their clients’ entire financial picture to identify critical issues, evaluate financial exposures, and provide quality recommendations to help clients achieve their objectives.

UW-Green Bay offers a minor in financial planning, which prepares students for a successful career helping people achieve their life goals through financial planning. And, as a CFP Board Registered Program, the university provides the educational requirements needed to sit for the CFP® Certification Examination.
