Registered Financial Consultants

There are over 80 designations conferred by universities, organizations and associations. Some are indicative of having passed a few educational courses, others require little more than payment of an annual fee. But most of the designations are designed to demonstrate an intellectual achievement and ongoing professional competence.

The IARFC places much greater emphasis on Continuing Education because it believes the field of personal finance is so complex, and has so many changes taking place every year, that a person offering to deliver comprehensive personal financial planning and advice must undergo a significant amount of Continuing Education each year. Thus the RFC must complete 40 hours (units) of CE, while most designations require only 15 hours yearly.
