John is not a real person. The purpose of this page is to provide an example of the Enhancedd Profile page for CEP® CERTIFICANTS in good standing with the NICEP.

The NICEP is the sole owner of the Certified Estate Planner™ (CEP®) and Master Certified Estate Planner™ (MCEP®) trademarks, and the only organization that confers these professional certifications.

Certificants in good standing with the NICEP can be found by using the search feature on this page. You are encouraged to use this site to find a qualified estate planning professional near you, or to verify the credentials of a professional person using either of these marks.

You should only work with trusted and experienced people, preferably a team of professionals that includes a financial advisor and a lawyer with a broad general practice and knowledge of estate planning. Maintain an ongoing relationship with a planner that you trust, someone that will make sure that your plans are fully funded and kept up to date.

Consumers are urged to check the credentials of individuals that they are working with. The CEP® (Certified Estate Planner™) or MCEP® (Master Certified Estate Planner™), is a financial, legal, or tax professional who has earned a distinctive educational certification through the National Institute of Certified Estate Planners (NICEP).
