Financial planning

The Lerner College’s financial planning major is built on a strong foundation of experiential learning. Financial planning courses utilize the latest software to keep students at the forefront of technology, and financial planning majors have many internship opportunities to work with companies both large and independent.

Lerner College financial planning majors also complete a capstone course, which requires that students create a full financial plan for an individual client. This gives students the complete experience, from start to finish, of providing financial planning services.

The Certified Financial Planning (CFP) Board has accredited the Lerner College’s financial planning program. This means that our graduates have satisfied the CFP education requirements, making them strong candidates for careers in the industry.
