Today the CFP Board announced plans to increase transparency and communications with certificants and other stakeholders.

Through a series of online Webinars and town-hall style meetings throughout the country, CFP Board aims to improve communications regarding its business operations and strategic decision-making process.

David G. Strege, CFP®, Chair of the Board of Directors, had this to say about the outreach initiative:

The diverse and wide-ranging nature of the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ certificant community makes open and transparent communication paramount. Technology, such as Webinars and other online tools, provides us with the means to build a robust communications structure.

I am in complete agreement with CFP Board’s decision to embrace better communication with stakeholders.  It is definitely a needed and long overdue course of action, especially considering the issues I personally have encountered over the last several months.
