FPA appoints new Head of Education

The Financial Planning Association of Australia (FPA) has appointed Shaun Weston-Cole as head of education, responsible for leading the introduction of new technologies in the delivery of the CFP program.

Weston-Cole joins the FPA from The College of Law, where he was responsible for learning content design and development.

Commenting on the appointment, FPA CEO Dante De Gori said: "Shaun brings considerable experience to the FPA and we are excited to have him join the team. We know our program content is world class and now we want to focus on delivering the best possible student experience. In addition to this, we want to develop a solution for financial planners who need to undertake further study to meet the forthcoming education requirements."

Weston-Cole replaces Howard Cook, who has transitioned into the role of FPA head of academic relations.
