Financial Advisor Alisa Schultz Earns CFP® Certification

Estes Wealth Strategies is thrilled to share the exciting news that financial advisor Alisa Schultz has attained her CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ (CFP®) certification from the Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards.

The CFP® mark is recognized as the highest standard of excellence for financial planners. It is earned through the completion of a rigorous program of coursework covering the major personal financial planning areas:

  • Investment planning

  • Tax planning

  • Retirement savings and income planning

  • Risk management and insurance planning

  • Estate planning

CFP® candidates must then pass a six-hour exam that tests their ability to apply these concepts to real-life client scenarios. To give you a sense of the rigor involved, the CFP Board reported an exam pass rate of just 68% for the exam administered in March 2024. So, way to go, Alisa!

All CFP® professionals commit to abide by CFP Board’s Code of Ethics and Standards of Conduct. This includes committing to follow a fiduciary standard to act in the client’s best interest at all times.

In earning her CFP® certification, Alisa joins financial advisor John Estes, also a CFP® professional, in bringing to our practice the highest level of knowledge and expertise in helping clients navigate their financial lives and plan strategically for the future.

Please join us in congratulating Alisa on this important and impressive accomplishment!
