JG

Jayne Grimes, CFP® (US)

I thought the presenter did a wonderful job of balancing the human aspects along with the technical and legal elements. Bringing up the "less than ethical" components provides the ongoing wariness that is necessary in protecting our clients' safety and best interests, especially as they become more vulnerable with age. I really appreciated the instructor's candor about her own aging and relating to her clients' personal (not just financial) needs.

MHK

Muna Hanna Khoury, CPA (US)

Very attentive and informed presenter. Wish some material specific to Canadian CPAs was included since the course qualifications mentions CPD for Canadian CPA. Having said that, I need to thank the presenter for her willingness to share more detailed material related to Canada in case contacted. I very much enjoyed and appreciated the webinar.
