16 International Benchmark - FPSB “Education and training programs for financial services qualifications and professional certifications increasingly rely on a competency-based approach, whereby a curriculum’s learning outcomes and theoretical knowledge connect to appropriate practice outcomes or competencies for a given job function. In developing a global education standard for financial planning, FPSB developed learning outcomes and content for its Financial Planning Curriculum Framework that relate to the abilities, skills and knowledge needed to practice financial planning (as defined by FPSB’s Financial Planner Competency Profile). By linking the Financial Planning Curriculum Framework directly to its Financial Planner Competency Profile, FPSB encourages educators to be directed by the actual practice of financial planning when developing financial planning curricula, so that students develop thinking and capabilities that prepare them to practice as competent financial planning professionals.”
