However, we know that too many families do not start saving early enough, don\u2019t recognize the short time horizon associated with saving for college or feel overwhelmed with the potential cost and struggle to save anything.<br \/>\nFinancial capability is critical to our organization because we want families to possess not only the knowledge, but also have the skills and confidence to start saving for college, start saving early and, ideally, make it a priority within their family. We also want them to know that any amount saved can help reduce future expenses (e.g., student loans) and that for most families, they don\u2019t save the full amount.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li><strong>This year we are celebrating #30YearsofAFC. How has the AFC\u00ae certification impacted your organization?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The AFC certification is very important for our organization.<\/p>\n<p>Whether working with financial advisors, our member colleges or directly with families, having the AFC certification provides credibility to those in our organization and ensures we stay informed on topics related to financial capability.\u00a0\u00a0 Moreover, the continuing knowledge through AFCPE keeps us up to date on the latest data, trends, and relevant information.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"5\">\n<li><strong>How can financial professionals can get involved with you?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Two ways to get involved with us.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>First. If you are working with families and discussing college savings, and private college is a consideration, I would encourage you to share our plan.<\/li>\n<li>Second, as part of our new CollegeWell brand, we welcome experts to share knowledge and information with our consumers.
