Financial planner training IAF: Teaching methods

A recent survey of those interested in the IAF financial planner training program shows which forms of teaching are currently most popular:

• A third of those surveyed would like face-to-face teaching in schools.
• A good quarter prefer hybrid lessons, i.e. a combination of face-to-face and online lessons.
• A quarter would like to have purely online lessons so that they can learn anywhere and at any time.
• The remaining share has no clear preference and decides flexibly depending on the offer or personal situation.

The proportion of those in favor of face-to-face teaching has decreased slightly over the last few years. At the same time, interest in hybrid teaching has risen slightly, while the desire for online teaching and the group with no clear preference have increased slightly.

This development indicates that participants in the IAF financial planner training program are increasingly placing value on flexible and combined forms of learning. Depending on personal learning styles and time constraints, face-to-face, hybrid or online teaching may therefore be the right choice.
