Is CFP course hard to get into ? Average salary in India?
Hello there
Good to see that you want to make some career in CFP course and I want to tell you that it is a very good career option and have very good jobs in its field. If I talk about private corporate job then the most popular is financial advisor. The CFPs also get employed in the field of Management companies, banks, mutual funds and other Financial Institutions.
As you must be knowing that it is a professional course so yes it is something hard to crack. You have to go through the course for about 2 to 3 or 4 years to get the better knowledge. But definitely its a very good course and you should look upon it.
I hope it helps you !
Thank you!
Hope you are doing well!
The CFP entrances have gotten tough to get in since last some years , however with proper prepration you can definitely crack them , the pass rates have been dropping since the last few years , CFP is easy as compared to chartered accountancy. It can easily be completed within 1 year certified CFP salary ranges around INR 3,98,000.
Dear Aspirant ,
In India the CFP ( Certified Financial Planner) course is offered by FPSB(Financial Planning Standards Boards India) . The main aim of this course is to prepare you for skills such as taxes, estate, planning , defining financial goals of a company and so on . It usually is a 1 year course and can be taken both offline and online. The selection is merit based.
You must have the following criteria to be eligible for this course-
1. You must have successfully completed your 10+2 exams.
2. If you are a graduate a 3 year work experience is asked for and if you are a non -graduate then 5 year work experience is required.
So you see as compared to other short Financial courses as per my study , CFP is one of the easiest to get into because other courses requires you too have a bachelors or masters degree as compulsory.
The latest average salary according of CFP in India is somewhere near 4 LPA.
Hope this helped you !
