Hello all;
ICFE is in the application process to become a member of
the National Registry of CPE Sponsors, a program offered
by the National Association of State Boards of
Accountancy (NASBA) to recognize program sponsors who
provide continuing professional education (CPE) programs
in accordance with nationally recognized standards. (www.nasba.org).
The names of approved CPE program sponsors are published
in a listing distributed throughout the country via the
internet and in printed format.
State boards of accountancy and their licensees can
refer to this listing to identify and select CPE program
sponsors.
As part of the application process the ICFE needs three
CPA's to review and comment on the ICFE's three
certification curriculums:
ICFE Certified Credit Report Reviewer
ICFE Certified Identity Theft Risk Management Specialist
ICFE Certified Credit Score Manager
If you are a CPA, practicing or not, and would be
willing to help the ICFE by becoming a reviewer of one
or more of the certifications listed
above, please contact the ICFE by email or phone
(619-239-1401) for more details.
If you know a CPA who might benefit from one of our
programs, please
send this email to any and all - thank you.

About the ICFE:
The Institute of Consumer Financial Education (ICFE) was founded in 1982 by the late Loren Dunton (creator of the Certified Financial Planner (CFP) designation). The ICFE is dedicated to helping consumers of all ages to improve their spending, increase savings and use credit more wisely.
The ICFE is an award winning, nonprofit, consumer education organization that has helped millions of people through its education programs and resources. It publishes the Do-It-Yourself Credit File correction Guide, which is updated annually. The ICFE has distributed over one million Credit/Debit Card Warning Labels and Credit/Debit Card Sleeves world wide.
The ICFE became an official partner with the Department of Defense/Financial Readiness Campaign in June of 2004.The ICFE was an active partner in the California Student Debt Resource Awareness Project (CASDRAP) which resulted in a new web site: (studentdebthelp.org). CASDRAP disbanded in 2010, shortly after the web site project was completed. In 2011 the ICFE assumed the single sponsorship of the (studentdebthelp.org) web site and is now responsible for its content and operation.
The ICFE is also an on-line help for consumers who spend too much. ICFE's spending help was featured in PARADE Magazine in the Intelligence Report section. The money helps and tips are from the ICFE's Money Instruction Book, our course in personal finance.
Visit the ICFE's other web sites at: www.icfe.info and studentdebthelp.org. Both sites helps consumers and students with mending spending, learning about the proper use of credit, budget and expense guidelines, how to set up and implement a spending-plan and also how to access financial education courses and how to teach children about money. Other ICFE services include: Ask Mr. G, a free eNews, and an online resource center for students, parents and educators, plus financial education learning tools and a book store.
