The new NAIFA year
brings some new educational opportunities with it. As a fundamental principle of NAIFA,
education is a key component of being successful. I encourage you to form a class in the New Year,
to help foster engagement within your local membership, especially the new YAT
members.
The New LUTCF designation and curriculum has been built and
classes have begun. Continue your
education and develop yourself by getting this designation first. A great way to meet other NAIFA members, by
engaging in classes that better everyone!
Due to the changing sociological environment that we live
in, new classes have been developed to assist the Agent/Producer to be better
equipped to help society in these dynamic times. The
new designation is “Financial Services Certified Professional” or FSCP.
Group study within your local association is always
encouraged and simple to facilitate.
Call NAIFA National, for direction; there are only a couple of quick
steps to get rolling. If you’ve found
that your local doesn’t have enough people signing up for a class, they may
still want to go it alone. For them,
there is a self study option, like joining an class online. If you need some specific help getting a
class started, call me. I would be happy
to get your association in motion!!!
The latest news is that the LUTCF designation is not going
away completely, only back to the shop for a tune up. The Professional Development department in
conjunction with The American College is going to re-launch the LUTCF designation
in mid-2015 with new curriculum content.
Presidents, don’t
forget that this is a revenue source for your local association. You are paid a fee per participant in these
classes at the completion of the course.
Good Luck
and make a great learning year!!

Professional Development Chair
