Discover the World of Financial Coaching
What inspires people to live with their money in a way that honors their values and fuels the vision they have of their future?
This question drives and determines how we design our programming, because we understand that people don’t have financial goals. They have personal aspirations with financial implications.
We train a diverse range of experienced and emerging professionals like you to deepen your mastery, heighten the quality of your client communication, and make a positive impact on the communities you serve.
The world needs more competent and ethical financial coaches. Why not you?
Unfortunately, it’s become increasingly more difficult for people all across the wealth and income spectrums to get the kind of support and guidance they need.
The people you serve have complex lives, complex challenges, and real concerns that require the expertise of an empathetic and well-informed professional.
Financial coaches play a critical role in helping clients experience positive financial transformation because they:
- Work with them to explore values, beliefs, and attitudes around money
Partner with them to develop actionable plans for spending, savings, and investing - Are an invaluable resource and guide for those who are managing multiple priorities,
- Serve as an accountability partner for individuals who desire to stay on track toward their long-term financial and lifestyle goals.
Whether you’re an experienced or aspiring financial educator, financial planner, financial counselor, or a non-profit / community-based organization professional, this course will help you identify practices that deepen your client relationships and inspire lasting behavior change.
