Stock Comp Bootcamp For Financial Advisors Will Get Their Knowledge In Tip-Top Shape
08 October 2020
What do you call a bootcamp about stock compensation? A "Bootcomp"? Maybe. Whatever the case, myStockOptions is holding a bootcamp on stock comp in a special webinar on October 21, presented by myStockOptions editor-in-chief Bruce Brumberg, Esq.
While nobody will actually have to drop and give us twenty pushups (though they are welcome to do so if they want), our bootcamp is a great opportunity for financial advisors, lawyers, CFAs, and tax professionals to learn all they need to know about stock comp or sharpen their existing knowledge in just 100 lively minutes. This webinar is yet another educational offering from myStockOptions in addition to the self-study courses and exams in the website's Learning Center, which offers a multitude of continuing education credits for CFP, CEP, CPWA, and CIMA professionals.
Bootcamp details are below and at the webinar registration page.
For financial advisors in particular, stock compensation is a complex planning niche they must understand when their clients have grants of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, or employee stock purchase plans. Command of the core topics is required to better serve clients, build wealth, and prevent costly mistakes.
"You will understand the fundamentals of stock comp with our bootcamp webinar," guarantees Bruce, a respected expert on equity comp with over 20 years of experience in stock comp education, communications, and training.

If you don't feel you're in top stock comp shape after our webinar, as part of our bootcamp guarantee I will provide you with a private tutoring session myself."
