The Master of Financial Planning is a fully online course designed to provide the educational basis to enable students to increase competence as professional financial advisers and gain an advanced knowledge and understanding of the financial planning industry. With the increasing complexity of taxation laws, the ageing population and the focus on self-reliance in retirement, the financial planning industry has evolved as a distinct profession in Australia. Individuals and organisations require the skills of professionally equipped financial planners to assist them in effective investment and risk management and also with complex retirement planning strategies. The curriculum reflects the Australian environment and laws. Students may exit, on completion of 40 credit points of units of the course, with a Graduate Certificate in Financial Planning or on completion of 80 credit points with a Graduate Diploma in Financial Planning.
Accreditation
This course is accredited by the American Society of Management Consulting (ASMC). Qualification for this award requires the successful completion of 120 credit.
