Most texts can be purchased either through Kaplan Schweser, directly from the publisher, or through online book sellers. Textbook orders should be placed at least two weeks prior to the start of each course to ensure you receive the appropriate textbook and edition. Instructions for ordering textbooks are found in the textbook list.

Please note that during the nine-month time period, textbook editions and prices are subject to change. For this reason, order only those texts that correspond with the course you are currently taking (e.g. Fundamentals of Financial Planning and Insurance Planning).

FINANCIAL CALCULATOR
A financial calculator is required for this course. A list of calculators can be found here.

SYLLABI

The latest syllabi for each course are uploaded on Blackboard. We have included this syllabus as an example of what to expect in the first course, Fundamentals of Financial Planning and Insurance.
