Distinguish yourself from the competition with the only national certification for preplanners – NFDA's exclusive Certified Preplanning Consultant (CPC) designation! Seminars in Pittsburgh, Penn.; Vancouver, B.C.; Des Moines, Iowa; and Wethersfield, Conn., are fast approaching. Apply today so you have time to study in advance of the seminar and certification exam. Space at the upcoming Pittsburgh seminar, taking place July 12-13, is extremely limited; apply today if you wish to participate.

When you earn your CPC certification, you will set yourself apart from other preplanners, earn recognition for your professional achievement, increase the confidence of the families you serve and promote professional standards and ethics.

Upon acceptance to the program, you will receive the CPC Standards Manual and are responsible for studying it prior to the seminar. During the seminar, the instructor will review key concepts from the manual and prepare you to take the certification exam.
