Talk CFP® Exam, Financial Planning Careers and More!

Every day on the forum, candidates are discussing the CFP® certification process and answering common questions about education, experience and the CFP® exam. The Candidate Forum gives you the chance to connect online with others on the path to CFP® certification; it’s a great place to ask questions, share experiences and find the support you need.

If you are preparing to sit for the CFP® exam, you’ll want to spend your study time wisely and to use the best tools and resources. You can explore the “Recommendations from Candidates” highlight to read about what your peers were doing at each stage of their exam preparation. It might be a good time to explore the “4 months before the CFP® exam, where were you in your preparation” discussion! Whether you plan to sit for the CFP® exam in July, November, or during a later exam window, your colleagues on the CFP Board Candidate Forum can help you get ready.

Besides the daily discussions on the Candidate Forum, you can find stories from other candidates about their experiences in the blog section. Follow along on the journey to certification as new CFP® professionals share their paths, or dive into study plans that helped your peers find success. Explore these stories to find inspiration, tips and encouragement for your own journey.

Plus, CFP Board hosts regular “Ask the Expert” sessions in the Candidate Forum, where you can get answers directly from CFP® professional experts on careers, education requirements, the CFP® exam and much more.

You can access the CFP Board Candidate Forum through your CFP Board account. Don’t have an account? Create one now.
