Becoming a CPA Financial Planner 1 Credit
Select your learning mode
With the increased demand and projected growth of personal financial planning services in areas such as estate, retirement, risk management, and investments, CPAs are quite possibly the single most important decision-makers for individuals and businesses, and it is time to realize that we do more than taxes. There is an entire profession of CPA financial planners dedicated to advising clients on the financial decisions that will impact every facet of their lives.
The demand for CPA Financial Planners has never been greater and will persistently grow over the next decade as legislation tightens, money in motion accelerates, and the tax and financial planning industry continues to consolidate.
This CPE Finance course will show you how serving your existing clients as a financial planner and an investment advisor will increase your profit, diversify your business, balance your workload, create long-lasting and engaging relationships with your best clients, and improve your overall value.

After serving ten years of active military service and completing a combat tour in Afghanistan, Shawn started his career in financial planning and investments in 2007. Joining the industry at the beginning of the “Great Recession” allowed him to quickly learn that the stock market can be unpredictably cruel, and at the same time, extremely rewarding to those who stayed the course. Also, during that time, he and his clients became an invaluable part of each other’s lives. They relied on him to get them through the worst markets in years. He learned more about life, trust, perseverance, and the undeniable need for clients to have genuine and executable plans.
As a Financial Advisor and the CPAlliance™ Director with CPS Investment Advisors, Shawn’s passions and
profession are aligned. He gets to enrich and grow the CPAlliance™ program by helping CPAs become CPA financial planners and teach them how to help clients
achieve or protect their financial independence. His ability to understand and breakdown the most complex problems, along with his broad professional
experience, uniquely equips him to be the perfect coach, mentor, and trainer for the CPAlliance™ members, as well as, advise clients on how to achieve and
protect their financial independence.
When he’s not helping CPAs and clients plan and execute, he can be found spending time endurance training (or
binge watching the next great Netflix series) with his wife Amy, playing guitar, and singing worship tunes with Emma, watching Isabella make pyramids with her water ski team, or rooting Ethan on as he plays Lacrosse for his high school.
Shawn earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration and an MBA from Saint Leo University. He earned a
Certificate in Financial Planning from Florida State University and became a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional in 2011.
