CFEI study guide

The Certified Financial Education Instructor (CFEI®) credential is offered by the National Financial Educators Council (NFEC), which describes itself as a social enterprise and an IACET-accredited provider that has trained and certified over 5,000 graduates of its CFEI course. The credential is aimed at practitioners who teach personal finance - classroom educators, workplace benefits and HR staff, nonprofit and community program leaders, coaches, and others who deliver financial literacy instruction. According to the NFEC, the CFEI signals that an instructor meets the benchmarks set out in the organization's Framework for Teaching Personal Finance, which the NFEC says was adapted in collaboration with the Danielson Group and aligned with InTASC principles; the framework covers the knowledge, competencies, and observable practices that distinguish high-quality financial educators. Because the NFEC's CFEI certification page returned an error at the time this page was assembled, no official exam blueprint was available: the number of questions, time limit, passing score, fee, retake policy, and validity period are all unconfirmed here and should be verified directly with the NFEC before you register. Topics on this exam: Financial education instruction and program delivery and Financial education standards and ethics. The CFEI study guide has 2 sections and about 636 words.
