(June 6 – 15:55) – The Investment Funds Institute of Canada is reminding aspiring financial planners that its educational arm, the Canadian Institute of Financial Planning, now offers a fast-track option for its six-course program leading to the Certified Financial Planner designation.

To participate in the fast-track program students must enrol online and select the fast-track option. Course assignments are submitted via the Internet. Although there are no due dates for assignments, all assignments must be submitted prior to the originally scheduled exam.

Students who register online before June 30 will have the option of writing the September 23 exam, provided they get their assignments in before that date.
