Terms of Service
These terms cover your use of advisorroadmap.com, a free career resource provided by Parsonex Enterprises, Inc. By using the site you agree to them.
What this site is
advisorroadmap.com (the "Site") is a free educational resource provided by Parsonex Enterprises, Inc. It explains how people become financial advisors, which licenses and credentials are involved, and what the steps cost and take, using figures from government and regulator sources. The Site has no accounts and does not sell anything.
No professional advice
Content on the Site is general education. It is not legal, financial, tax, investment or career advice, and it is not an offer of employment or a recommendation of any firm, product or security. Consult qualified professionals for advice specific to your situation. Nothing on the Site should be relied upon as personalized advice.
Check the official source
Every figure on the Site links to its official source with the date we accessed it. Licensing rules, exam details and fees change, and they differ by state. Before you act, confirm the current rules with the official source, such as FINRA, NASAA, the SEC, your state securities regulator or insurance department, or the CFP Board. The Site does not provide exam preparation.
Our tools
Our tools show steps, fees and timelines from the same published data. Their results are estimates for planning, not a promise of any outcome, and they never estimate pay or earnings. How the tools handle your settings is described in our Privacy Policy.
