The Financial Planning Association has created a one-of-a-kind virtual externship. This program takes place over the course of 8 weeks and helps students explore financial planning in-depth.
Is the FPA Externship right for your students?
This virtual externship is perfect for CFP® students, business school students, or those studying any major who have strong listening and overall communication skills. It’s also the perfect learning opportunity for students who have a desire to help others plan and work towards their life goals.
Financial planning is a growing profession and our association is looking for students who want to explore opportunities through this externship program.
Students will not be asked to sell any products or services; this is just a chance to develop professionally and learn about opportunities in financial planning. Students can expect a truly immersive externship experience, with about a 20-25 hour/week time commitment.
This externship offers:
- Networking and professional development opportunities
- An opportunity to become certified on eMoney Advisor financial planning software
- Exploration of the different areas of financial planning, including tax, college planning,
investments, insurance, etc. - A chance to see financial planning in action, with a behind-the-scenes look of everything that goes into a planner’s engagement with clients
- Feedback provided on externship assignments and projects, plus insight into diverse financial planning firms and approaches
Share this virtual learning experience with your students.
