Leading financial planning education resources delivered by premier university leads to clear professional differentiation and growth path
ATLANTA, Sept. 17, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The University of Florida's (UF) College of Agricultural and Life Sciences, Department of Family, Youth and Community Sciences has selected leading financial planning education solutions provider Dalton Education, to offer a new CFP® certification education program for financial planning professionals.
The program, available through Virtual Classroom or Self-Paced delivery, is designed specifically for busy industry professionals, preparing them to take and pass the CFP® exam in nine months or less. In addition to robust education resources, professionals have access to Dalton's CFP® exam review and Guarantee to Pass™, the industry's only CFP® exam education and review program to offer a money-back guarantee that students will pass the exam on their first attempt. Successful completion of the program gains professionals a certificate of completion from the University of Florida.
The Virtual Classroom delivery is a comprehensive, live-online, instructor-led program that satisfies the education requirement for a professional to sit for the CFP® exam. The virtual course is designed for professionals' convenience, allowing them to access sessions from a device and location of their choosing. Lectures are recorded for instances where a student misses a class.
The Self-Paced delivery also satisfies the CFP® certification education requirement and is ideal for students who prefer self-paced learning or who are unable to commit to regularly scheduled class meetings. This flexible learning method results in students successfully completing the program on their own timeline, while still gaining a thorough understanding of the material.

Gillice, president of Dalton Education.
