AFA partners with Kaplan

“We are excited to partner with Kaplan Professional as they share a common education philosophy, delivering a blend of vocational and higher education with practical experience and mentoring,” he said.

“By increasing education standards, we are ultimately looking to encourage more consumers to seek financial advice,” said Mr Hakes.

Kaplan Professional general manager Brian Knight said the partnership would create a “seamless pathway for advisers from diploma level, to bachelor degree, AFA accreditation and on to Masters”.
