Mark gained his certificate as a Certified Financial Planner. This qualification is very hard to obtain, because an individual must be able to fulfill every stringent requisite and specification. Mark is constantly up to date with the latest developments in financial planning. This is due to the fact that every CFP certificant must complete a re-certification every two years once they are certified, in order to maintain their qualification.
