CFP Advisory Councils

CFP Advisory Councils are groups composed of financial planning professionals and stakeholders who provide guidance and feedback to the Certified Financial Planner (CFP) Board. Their role is to help shape the direction of the CFP certification, ensuring it remains relevant, rigorous, and valuable. These councils discuss industry trends, ethical standards, educational requirements, and emerging issues in financial planning. Their insights help the CFP Board make informed decisions, improve certification processes, and uphold high standards within the profession, ultimately supporting the public’s trust in well-qualified financial planners.
