AFA announces 2012 Excellence in Education Award

Dean Lombardo from Access Financial Management is the 2012 winner of the Association of Financial Advisers (AFA)’s Excellence in Education Award (the Award). 

The Award, now in its fifth year, is sponsored by Asteron Life and recognises the best and brightest financial advice professionals entering the industry. AFA CEO Richard Klipin said the Award demonstrates the AFA’s ongoing commitment to education.

“The AFA believes that education is a journey, not a destination,” Mr Klipin said. “Our members are always on the road to further education and this award is about recognising those  advisers who have shown outstanding commitment to their studies and to continuing their ongoing education.

“Dean has demonstrated that commitment in spades.”

Asteron Life Executive General Manager Adviser Distribution, Jordan Hawke, said Asteron Life is extremely proud to sponsor the AFA Excellence in Education Award for the fifth year running.    

“The Award recognises advisers’ commitment and excellence in advice by participating in further education during their career,” Mr Hawke  said. “We champion the continual raising of the bar of the advice profession by recognising and rewarding excellence in adviser education.”
