Course Overview

This CPE course will review the importance of good communication skills during the last three steps of the financial planning process. 

We will look at effective ways financial planners can utilize oral and written communication strategies to present their analysis and results of their work to the client and prepare documents that are clear and specific to the engagement.

Effectively communicating with customers is essential to the success of any business. Adapting to the different communication styles and emotions of customers will help you build customer relationships through better customer conversations. Improving conversations with customers enables efficient, high-quality client service.

This course covers the following Major Topics: 

  • The Occurrence of Communication, Communication Styles, and Getting Ready to Design the Plan 
  • Specific Client Needs Should be Addressed, and Implementation of the Plan 
  • Writing the Financial Plan: Components of a Written Financial Plan, Observations, and Recommendations
