PROFESSIONAL DESIGNATIONS help us serve you
Jennifer Napper holds two important professional designations, CFP® and CDFA®, indicative of her commitment to enhance her knowledge in order to best serve her clients. Here is a brief explanation of each.
CFP® – Certified Financial Planner™ professional
Most people think that all financial planners are “certified,” but this isn’t true. Anyone can call himself or herself a “financial planner.” Only those who have fulfilled the certification and renewal requirements of CFP Board can display the CFP® certification marks.
Individuals certified by CFP Board have taken the extra step to demonstrate their professionalism by voluntarily submitting to the rigorous CFP® certification process that includes demanding education, examination, experience and ethical requirements.
CDFA® - Certified Divorce Financial Analyst®
Getting your affairs in order during a divorce is made easier with the help of a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst® (CDFA®). This certification emphasizes the analyst’s ability to aid you in financial decisions and work with you and your attorney toward a settlement that fully addresses your long-term needs.
Using proprietary software and specialized knowledge, CDFA® professionals can help determine the short- and long-term financial impact of a settlement. They are able to create, analyze and forecast various scenarios to outline a fair settlement that will help protect your interests and potentially keep costs low and reduce the time it takes to work through a divorce.
Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards Center for Financial Planning, Inc. owns and licenses the certification marks CFP®, Certified Financial Planner®, and CFP® (with plaque design) in the United States to Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards, Inc., which authorizes individuals who successfully complete the organization's initial and ongoing certification requirements to use the certification marks.
Certified Divorce Financial Analyst® and CDFA® are trademarks of the Institute for Divorce Financial Analysts™ in the U.S. and/or other countries. The designation of Certified Divorce Financial Analysts™ is awarded by The Institute for Divorce Financial Analysts (IDFA) to individuals who successfully complete the training and test requirements set by IDFA. IDFA is the premier national organization dedicated to the certification, education and promotion of the use of financial professionals in the divorce arena. CDFAs are not attorneys and cannot give out legal advice.
