London

We bring together the best of two worlds — advanced academic research in strategy and comprehensive expertise from business — to deliver customised training for industry leaders and help them address specific situations of strategic change. We form teams of strategy scholars and business experts who are best positioned to anticipate and understand critical shifts in an industry. Together they design a unique learning experience around a strategic problem that organisations in that industry are going to face. Then they deliver engaging sessions of collaborative learning that greatly improve participants’ strategic thinking. We can help you... Think ...to understand change As a leader, you deal with continuous change. You look at the ever new opportunities and challenges arising from technological innovation, from advancements in knowledge and science, from new trends in society, and from transformations in the natural environment. And you wonder. The history of business offers countless examples of dominant firms that have been wiped out by a change that they did not see coming. Understanding the nature and magnitude of change is key. It is the first step towards formulating a new strategy and designing a new role for your organisation. But problems are increasingly complex and interconnected. Traditional knowledge and standard ‘business school frameworks’ don’t always apply to these extraordinary situations. Through tailored, problem-based learning, we help you gain complete understanding of the changes to come. Learn ...to create a new vision Every minor shift in any industry has the potential to turn into that ‘big change’. The change that creates new scenarios of use, defines new business roles and relationships and gives rise to new leaders. To remain relevant, today’s leaders must gain a different understanding of strategy. We take you on a journey that will reframe your thinking. We help you ‘see’ today the impact that transformations in the business environment will have on your organisation tomorrow. Together we assess options, we travel pathways and we explore sinergies to find innovative solutions for the future. Together we create a new vision.

College for Financial Planning

college for financial planning

In July 2018, Kaplan acquired the College for Financial Planning®, bringing together two respected leaders in financial services education. College for Financial Planning®—a Kaplan Company (CFFP) remains a separate institution, owned by Kaplan and accredited by the Higher Learning Commission. Education programs in financial planning, asset management, wealth management, and retirement planning including our CFP® certification program, professional designation programs, Master’s Degree in Personal Financial Planning, and Master’s Degree in Financial Analysis are offered under the name College for Financial Planning®—a Kaplan Company. The financial planning movement experienced a historic moment in December 1969 when 13 men gathered in Chicago and outlined the first steps to further the idea that people could benefit from a profession that integrated knowledge and practices across the various areas of the financial services industry. Resolutions were made to create the International Association for Financial Planners (IAFP) and the College for Financial Planning. Founded in 1972, the College for Financial Planning®—a Kaplan Company has a 50 year heritage in financial planning education. Shortly after its founding, the College introduced the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNERTM certification, which is now the world’s most recognized and respected financial planning credential with more than 90,000 certified professionals. Five decades after the the launch of our CFP® Certification Professional Education Program that led to the creation of the CFP® certification, our offerings now also include Master of Science degree programs in Personal Financial Planning and Financial Analysis as well as professional designation programs that provide more in-depth knowledge of the financial services industry with specializations in asset management, retirement planning and personal financial planning. These specializations include launching groundbreaking designation programs related to behavioral finance, domestic partnerships and sustainable, responsible, and impact (SRI) investments. The ongoing expansion of our education offerings is a reflection of our commitment to responding to the needs of the evolving financial services industry and supporting professionals looking to add to their skillset, advance their careers and create better outcomes for their clients. Since the first graduating class in 1973, more than 195,000 financial professionals are alumni of the College.
