Need a degree to get the CFP

[mikehart82]

4 months. To do it quickly you’ll need to ask them to open multiple courses at once. I didn’t spend much time in the text books, did the written reviews and videos. Each course is approx 10 modules. There is a quiz at the end of each module. You’ll want to get 100% on each quiz. You can take it as many times as you need to. You’ll also need to write 2 short write ups on discussion boards about an article you sourced … something from Kitces, Bloomberg, etc that related to what you’re learning. Then a proctored exam at the end of each course. Courses only open the first Thursday of every month so like I said, if your plan is to accelerate be sure to open more than 1/month.

4 months!!!  Holy hell!  Were you working while doing this?  How much time did you spend each week working on it?  I thought I was looking at 1.5-2 year easy...
