Our Process

Working with a CERTIFIED
FINANCIAL PLANNER™
Michael Cox has earned his CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ designation, or CFP® professional certification. To earn his CFP® Michael completed hundreds of hours of rigorous courses and examinations. These courses were then followed by a 10-hour examination administered according to the Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards.
The qualification process is an array of advice and skill-based approaches that distinguishes CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ (CFP® ) practitioners from other professional advisors, who typically focus on only one area of a client’s financial life.
Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards, Inc owns the certification marks CFP®, CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ , CFP® (with plaque design) and CFP® (with flame design) in the U.S., which it awards to individuals who successfully complete CFP Board’s initial and ongoing certification requirements.
