Resources
A frequently asked question at a weekly meeting might be, "What do you read daily?" Or "Where can I learn more about careers and topics in financial planning?"
Below are some resources that our professional network has provided for us to explore and enhance our basic understanding of financial planning.
Links include internship, networking, and learning resources.
Networking leads to opportunity.
The CFP Board website houses information about the Certified Financial Planner designation and associated careers, internships, and scholarships. Create an account to explore opportunities.
FPA is a professional, national networking group for those supporting the financial planning industry. You can join the group as a student, and we recommend joining the Philadelphia Chapter.
The National Association of Personal Financial Advisors is a group of over 4,600 fiduciary, fee-only advisors. You may apply to be a Student Affiliate using the link above.
Temple financial planning students and alumni should join the Temple University Financial Planning Association Alumni Group to stay connected to past, present, and future members of our SPO.
