CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER is the global standard in personal financial planning — awarded through FPSB, recognised in 29 territories, carried by more than 2,36,300 professionals worldwide and only about 3,534 in all of India. House of Financial Planners, an FPSB® Authorized Education Provider in Ahmedabad, teaches the full CFP® pathway through practitioner-taught lectures, question banks and live doubt-clearing — in classes small enough that the faculty knows your name.
The numbers behind the designation, as published by FPSB.
One credential, recognised across 29 countries and territories — the only financial-planning certification with a genuinely global standard behind it.
Global StandardOver 2,36,300 professionals hold the certification worldwide — a community that banks, wealth managers and advisory firms actively recruit from.
Career CurrencyAgainst roughly 1.79 lakh mutual fund distributors and lakhs of finance graduates, India has barely three and a half thousand CFPs. Scarcity is the point — the credential makes you rare.
Your EdgeInvestments, retirement, tax, insurance, estate and integrated planning — the CFP® curriculum covers the full breadth of what real clients actually need.
Complete SkillsetFPSB India runs two pathways — which one you take depends on where you're starting from.
| Pathway | Who it's for | The route |
|---|---|---|
| Regular | Graduates, working professionals, students — no prior credential needed | Three Specialist courses (Investment Planning → Retirement & Tax → Risk & Estate), then the Integrated Financial Planning capstone, the Psychology in Financial Planning module, and the final exam & assessment |
| Fast Track | CA, CFA charterholders and other qualifying credentials with experience | Straight to the Integrated Financial Planning capstone — the three Specialist stages are waived. Eligibility rules are on the IFP course page |
Each Specialist course also awards its own standalone FPSB® Specialist certification along the way — you build credentials while you study, not only at the end.
Each tab is the real course page — syllabus, eligibility, fees and enrolment for that module.
What CFP® classes at House of Financial Planners actually include.
Your faculty is a practising CFP® who advises real families every week. Every concept is taught with the client conversation it belongs to — which is also why our students walk into the exam's case studies prepared.
Practitioner FacultyThousands of exam-style practice questions with verified answer keys, solution videos and full-length mocks — organised per module, so practice starts from week one, not exam month.
Exam MachineLive doubt-clearing sessions, one-on-one coaching and mentorship through FPSB registration, exam booking and result day. When you're stuck, you ask a person — not a forum.

FPSB® AEPCFP® (Certified Financial Planner) is the global financial-planning credential awarded through FPSB, recognised in 29 territories with over 2,36,300 professionals worldwide. In India the pathway is run by FPSB India: three Specialist courses, a capstone (Integrated Financial Planning), a Psychology in Financial Planning module, and the final exam and assessment.
Both. The teaching is built on recorded lectures with live doubt-clearing sessions, so students across India study online, and Ahmedabad students also get direct access to the faculty locally — the institute is based in Navrangpura, Ahmedabad.
A practising CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER who runs a live advisory practice, supported by tutors for doubt-clearing. You learn the syllabus the way it is actually used with clients, not just for the exam.
The Regular pathway takes the three Specialist courses (Investment Planning, Retirement & Tax Planning, Risk & Estate Planning) before the capstone. Fast Track lets candidates with a qualifying credential and experience — such as CA, CFA charter or certain postgraduate qualifications — go directly to the capstone stage. Eligibility details are on each course page.
Course fees are listed on each course's own page along with enrolment, and FPSB's own charges (registration, exams, certification) are separate. Use the CFP Program Cost Calculator on our homepage for a complete personalised figure.
