Accounting (B.A.) at Southern Utah University

Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards, Inc. (CFP Board) defines financial planning as “a collaborative process that helps maximize a client’s potential for meeting life goals through Financial Advice that integrates relevant elements of the client’s personal and financial circumstances”. The aging population, the reality of shorter employment tenures and the movement of retirement responsibility from the employer to the individual worker all contribute to the increasing need for the services of financial planners. This increasing need opens doors of opportunity for industrious and imaginative people who have learned to apply sophisticated financial planning techniques.
