Alyssa Lawrence from Quality Equipment Finance attended the US Bank Equipment Finance Online ALFP earlier in May and shares, “The CLFP title is an important factor in the equipment finance industry because it shows the time and effort a person has put into [their] career. After being involved for over 9 years, I decided to pursue the designation to take the next step in my own career. The Foundation and its resources offer so much to anyone wanting to do the same.”
Raymond Buckley, of US Bank Equipment Finance shares a similar reason for pursuing the designation, stating, “After being in the equipment finance industry for over 25 years, I have seen the importance of the CLFP designation grow. I wanted to take my decades of experience and enhance what I already knew, or thought I already knew, with the academic knowledge base of the CLFP course. The course allowed me to get caught up on current rules and policies. I’m smarter for taking the course, better equipped and with a deeper knowledge base, and up to date on the latest practices and applications in the industry.”
The CLFP designation identifies an individual as a knowledgeable professional to employers, clients, customers, and peers in the commercial equipment finance industry. There are Certified Lease & Finance Professionals and Associates located throughout the United States (including Puerto Rico), Canada, India, Africa, and Australia.
