Core Skills in Financial Planning WorkshopThis one day workshop has been specifically designed for those working as financial advisers or Financial Planners to develop their Financial Planning skills. It is also an ideal workshop to understand what is required to become a CFP Professional. The workshop has been designed to provide delegates with a comprehensive understanding of the key Financial Planning skills required to successfully produce a comprehensive high quality financial plan. It will also highlight areas for further learning that may be required before sitting the CFP certification assessment. This is a highly inter-active workshop which encourages delegates to take the opportunity to learn from each others experiences during the various group based activities. Programme The day begins with a comprehensive overview and explanation of the six step Financial Planning process that is necessary to follow in every planning situation.
The key functions that are performed during this process, such as client communication, are also discussed.

A demonstration will also show delegates how they can perform these tasks using Microsoft Excel. Building on the six step Financial Planning process delegates will work through a case study and will review net worth statements and produce a detailed income and expenditure statement.
