GENERAL INFORMATION
The CMFC Program is the only industry-recognized mutual fund designation. It is the result of collaboration between the College for Financial Planning and the Investment Company Institute (ICI), the primary trade association for the mutual fund industry. The program’s quality and thoroughness reflect the combined experience and expertise of the College and the ICI.

This program provides you with a thorough knowledge of mutual funds and their various uses as investment vehicles. As a graduate of the program, you can approach mutual funds with a new understanding and confidence, as well as having the ability to communicate that confidence to your clients.

The College for Financial Planning awards the CMFC designation to students who successfully complete the program, pass the final examination, sign a code of ethics commitment and fill out a declaration form. Students must sign and return the ethics and declaration forms within six months of passing the final exam. Disclosures made on the declaration form are reviewed on a case-by-case basis and, depending on the nature of the disclosure, may impact a student’s eligibility to be awarded the designation. Successful students receive a certificate and are granted the right to use the designation on correspondence and business cards.
