AFIP Offers Boot Camp Discount to Industry Summit Attendees
The association is offering Industry Summit attendees a $100 discount if they register for its pre-conference certification Boot Camp by Aug.15.
COLLEYVILLE, Texas — The Association of Finance & Insurance Professionals (AFIP) is offering Industry Summit attendees a $100 discount if they register for the pre-conference certification Boot Camp by August 15.
The two-day intensive training session, slated for Sunday, Sept. 7, and Monday, Sept. 8, at the Paris Las Vegas Hotel, will culminate in the administration of the AFIP certification exam. The regular cost for the course and Boot Camp is $872.50. With the discount, the cost is $772.50.
AFIP introduced regional certification boot camps in January 2014. “The boot camp model has been highly successful,” said David Robertson, executive director of the association. “An attendee at the Bossier City, La., session said it best, ‘Until now, the regulations were just words on a page. This session made them come to life and gave them relevance to what I do every day.’”
The AFIP recommends that boot camp attendees study the certification course material for two to three weeks prior to the session.
The special Industry Summit room rate at Paris Las Vegas is available to Boot Camp attendees. When booking, attendees should ask for the Industry Summit rate.
