Financial Planner Education Diversity Empowerment

The purpose of the Financial Planner Education Diversity Empowerment Corporation (FPEDEC) is charitable and is a benefit to the government by providing support for public and private institutions of higher education with financial planner programs with the goal of increasing diversity in the financial planning profession.

One example of the institutions and programs that will be supported is the registered Certified Financial Planner (CFP) program at the University of Maryland University College (UMUC) and the UMUC undergraduate minor in Personal Financial Planning.
