Certified Financial Planners (CFPs) Can Now Get Most Of Their Continuing Education At myStockOptions

myStockOptions.com (https://www.mystockoptions.com/) has expanded the valuable offerings in its Learning Center, which offers continuing education (CE) credits for Certified Financial Planners (CFPs), Certified Equity Professionals (CEPs), Certified Private Wealth Advisors (CPWAs), and Certified Investment Management Analysts (CIMAs). A new course and exam on taxation and tax reporting for equity compensation builds on the previously established programs about financial planning, stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units, employee stock purchase plans, and SEC law.

Credits offered by the programs in the myStockOptions Learning Center (https://www.mystockoptions.com/learningcenter/):

– 35 continuing education credits for CEPs (over 100% of the total requirement)
– 18 continuing education credits for CFPs (60% of the total requirement)
– 18 continuing education credits for CPWAs and CIMAs (45% of the total requirement)

“Our CE courses not only demonstrate the practical expertise and excellence of our content,” explains Bruce Brumberg, the editor-in-chief at myStockOptions.com. “More than that, they add significant value to memberships at our websites, which have a big following among financial advisors, stock comp professionals, and stock plan participants. These are engaging online self-study programs that busy professionals can take at their convenience to obtain necessary CE credits.”

“The value of our CE courses as efficient educational tools has also led some major financial institutions to use our Learning Center for internal training and their in-house certification programs,” adds Mr. Brumberg.
