Advisors4Advisors

Craig Turner uses a synthetic financial-planning workbook to examine AI-assisted validation of household records, reconciliation of holdings and income, formula checks, projections, sensitivity testing and reviewable dashboards. Learn to verify identifiers, preserve sources, document unresolved items and retain professional judgment over financial-planning conclusions. The class also examines participant survey findings on AI risk, adoption and training.

Reading and video included

You receive both the complete DOCE (a document optimized for continuing education) and the 49-minute webinar replay, so you can read the material and watch the demonstration. For this self-study program, reading the complete DOCE is required; the replay and audio are supplementary. The replay runs 49 minutes, 10 seconds. Duplicate formats do not provide additional credit.
