The 2008 Paraplanner Awards are proudly promoted by The Paraplanner in association with The Institute of Financial Planning.
The Paraplanner of the Year and Rising Star Awards are being introduced in the UK following the successful launch of TheParaplanner.com – the only resource in the UK solely dedicated to the promotion and development of paraplanners.
The Awards have been created due to the lack of official or professional recognition for paraplanners and paraplanning in the UK. The demand for paraplanners has grown significantly in recent years and the Awards are a great opportunity to gain recognition within the profession. As well as some attractive prizes being on offer, the Awards are designed to improve and promote the professional standing of paraplanners and the wider financial planning profession. The Awards encourage those who have chosen to make paraplanning their career and recognise not only the outstanding Paraplanner of the Year but also paraplanning's Rising Star.
