Increasing Awareness

CFP Board is always working to raise awareness of the value of CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® certification among the public. These efforts help demonstrate how a CFP® professional is a client's trusted partner, providing confidence today and a more secure tomorrow.

Life is full of questions and it’s important to know the right ones to ask.

The CFP Board 2024 Public Awareness Campaign focuses on the most important question you should be asking when it comes to your finances: “Are you a CFP® professional?”

That’s why It’s Gotta Be A CFP®.

Student Ad Campaign

Quite possibly the perfect job.

“Quite Possibly the Perfect Job” is a new digital ad campaign encouraging college-bound high school students and college students to explore a career as a CFP® professional.

This campaign supports CFP Board's Workforce Development Initiative, a crucial component of our multiyear strategic plan. It is not part of our consumer-focused Public Awareness Campaign; it is an investment in the future of the financial planning profession.
