What’s A CCPS

What is a Certified College Planning Specialist?

The CCPS certification program is designed for financial advisors who actively assist families in preparing for the financial cost of sending children to college. With today’s high cost of college, many families are desperately seeking ways to more easily manage that cost. Many financial professionals, however, are lacking the dedicated support of an organization and program founded entirely on the principles of ongoing professional education and vocational excellence within the specialized area of college financial planning. The purpose of the CCPS certification program is to provide candidates with the knowledge and resources necessary to start and manage a successful college planning advisory practice.
