Please provide your designation details in the registration form when signing up for a course.

Blackstone is a CE sponsor at the CFP Board and the Investments and Wealth Institute (IWI), which include CIMA, CPWA and RMA designations. For each course, you are required to watch the entire video and score at least a 70% in a 10-question quiz following the video. You can also self-report credits with any designation that allows it such as CFA and Canadian Investment Regulatory Organization (CIRO).

Our team submits course participants’ CFP and/or IWI designation details weekly, but please allow time as the CE credits may not appear immediately on your organization’s website. Participants with CIRO or any other US designation can self-report attendance using the certificate available for download at the end of the course.
