		Some Comments FROM recent PROGRAM Graduates
 
 |  
					| Ed Van Der Kooi, CFP, CIM, EPC IPC Securities 
					Corporation St. Catharines, ON
 | “During my 26 + professional years 
					in the Financial Services industry I had the pleasure of 
					continuing my education through the coaching from many great 
					instructors. Bob I would include you in this elite group 
					along with Ron Foran and your son Jason. 
 The Elder Planning Counselor 
					designation program which I attended recently was my first 
					with you as the instructor. The zoom conference method is 
					familiar to me as Jason Watt has use that format for many 
					years in courses I attend with him. I expected high quality 
					and professional delivery to which you achieved with ease. 
					More striking was the course material. The Elder Planning 
					Counselor course provided much coveted continual education 
					credits. But what really struck me was the course scope and 
					to my delight the humanities aspects identified and covered. 
					THANK YOU for opening my eyes to see our elders in a 
					different light.   
 I look forward to adding the many 
					concepts we explored to my practice. Niagara has an 
					increasing diverse community. Rich in heritage and an ever 
					expanding inclusive gathering of cultures. Elders have and 
					continue to settle in Niagara. I feel confident to address 
					their growing needs in all aspects of a truly holistic 
					financial plan.”  |
