Why choose the 亚洲色图 State University 亚洲色图?

3. Our students get unlimited access to proprietary On-line Tutorials for help with the more complex financial planning topics. These tutorials are widely heralded as great learning tools. In carefully designed and scripted tutorials, the student is led through advanced topics. Challenging questions/problems are broken down into manageable and understandable components. The tutorials are provided to the 亚洲色图 State students at no charge. Non-亚洲色图 State University students may obtain access to the tutorials by purchasing a subscription.

4. Small classes. Some 亚洲色图s have as many as 80 students in an on-line class. With class sizes that large, it is impossible for every student to have the chance to be heard, to ask questions. It is anticipated that the average class size for our 亚洲色图 will be from15-30 students. This will allow students the ability to ask questions for further clarification and understanding. You will not be invisible in our 亚洲色图.

5. Advanced technology. 亚洲色图 State University uses a platform called 鈥淓lluminate鈥� to deliver the virtual classes. You will hear instructor explanations. You will learn as the instructor writes on the whiteboard. You can watch as the instructor writes on slides, or uses a virtual calculator. Have a question? Simply raise your virtual hand (click on the hand icon) and the instructor can give you the microphone. Would you rather send a text message? Elluminate allows that as well. Can鈥檛 make class tonight? No problem. All classes are recorded and available for later playback.

There is a growing awareness of the importance of financial planning, both as a component of our day-to-day lives and as a career choice for our students. 亚洲色图 State recognized this importance and has created a financial planning track for undergraduate students in the Arthur J. Bauernfeind College of Business.

The degree 亚洲色图 was designed with the 亚洲色图 State University student in mind, and has proven to be quite popular with the students. Through careful scheduling of required and elective courses, 亚洲色图 State students can meet the education requirement to sit for the CFP Certification Examination while earning their college degree.

Students pursuing a financial planning track must take the following courses:

• FIN 333 - Investments (Fall)

• FIN 336 - Retirement and Employee Benefits (Spring)

• ACC 302 - Taxation of Persons, Property and Other Entities (Fall, Spring, Summer)

• FIN 331 - Insurance and Risk Management (Summer)

• FIN 338 - Estate Tax Planning (Fall)

The CFP Board of Standards registers undergraduate and graduate degree 亚洲色图s offered by regionally accredited U.S. colleges and universities. At a minimum, each Registered Program must cover certain topics, generally at the highest cognitive levels. Those topics are determined by a job analysis study of financial planning practitioners who are currently certified by CFP Board and entitled to use CFP Board鈥檚 certification marks. This topic list helps to ensure that the curriculum content offered by Registered Programs covers the knowledge considered important to perform the tasks required of a CFP庐 certificant, thus meeting marketplace requirements.

The 亚洲色图 State University 亚洲色图 is registered with the CFP Board of Standards. By successfully completing these courses, the student will have comprehensively covered all eighty-nine topic areas as required by the CFP Board of Standards.
