Business higher-ed friends, this week marks my first year with Amplified Planning! We're hosting a webinar tomorrow to talk about how The Externship can provide experiential learning opportunities to your students interested in careers in financial planning. This year marks the 5th cohort of The Externship, and we have 3,200 alumni who range from students to career changers to veterans and current financial planners. The Externship is a requirement for new financial planners in many firms. Externs earn CFP Board experience hours, an eMoney certification, and learn from more than 50 experts. Many universities count it as internship credit, and the program is breaking down barriers-to-entry into the profession, especially for students who can't afford to stop working for a traditional internship.

Our interns are back this year a bit better and a bit more experienced.  They've already shown growth since they started last year. We've witnessed them becoming more comfortable around our team and at ease with the tasks and projects assigned.  Of course, this is due to the fact that our interns aren't there to fetch coffee (they're still struggling with the coffee machine sometimes). They've grown enough to contribute fresh perspectives and innovative ways of doing things. It's inspiring to see how they've progressed from knowing litle about our work to confidently suggesting new ways to approach challenges.  Sometimes, they're really not in the mood to learn, and that's okay. After feeling the weight of the school year, not evey day will be your best day.  But most of the time, they're happy to get things done.  If you're about to work with young interns for the first time - here's a tip: use familiar analogies and real-world examples in their training. Relate teachings to video games, nights out with friends, or hobbies and interests.  It's fun to see how their faces just light up when you mention a movie they like 👀 What tasks will our interns do this year? Stay tuned!

For young professionals establishing their career through an internship, it may be tempting to immediately spend their hard-earned paychecks. However, by investing their internship paychecks they leverage the power of compound interest, benefit from tax advantages, and build sound financial habits early. This way, young professionals may build a secure and prosperous financial future.
