HOW TO JOIN SFPA...
We would like to have all Family Finanical Planning majors and anyone interested in the financial industry to join SFPA! We are open to ALL majors! At our meetings, speakers come from various financial institutions to talk with us about their businesses. They present us with a better insight on major facets of their company such as: the philosophy of their business and how it operates (i.e. fee-only or commission based) and whether they specialize in retirement planning, financial counseling, or investments. These representatives inform us about their work environment and how to climb the ladder for specific career paths. They also give advice on how to edit resumés and cover letters, as well as dressing profesionally for an interview with their company. These meetings are a great networking opportunity!
