Conference Updates
NQPA Certificate Program
Who is NAPA?
In 2011, the National Association of Plan Advisors (NAPA) was formed, and has since then become the fastest-growing member association in the retirement planning industry. Created by and for retirement plan advisors, membership is also open to other retirement industry professionals who support the interests of plan advisors. While the financial services industry is well represented in Washington by a number of trade associations that weigh in on issues affecting advisors, NAPA is the only advocacy group exclusively focused on the issues that matter to retirement plan advisors. This exclusive focus is what sets NAPA apart.
