What Your Peers are Saying

DACFP’s Crypto Professional certification course was an excellent program. It is taught by a real “who’s who” cast in the space and delivers you great information from the basics to the advanced. It is a great program to take whether you are just starting your blockchain journey or are already deep in the weeds.

I also want to give a shout out to the DACFP team and, in particular, Nicole Ricciardi who was with me every step of the way. She was incredibly communicative, helpful and went above and beyond in assisting me with any questions I had. It gave me real peace of mind and confidence when signing up for this course knowing that there are people at DACFP who truly care for their clients and are there to assist with anything and everything.

I am grateful to the entire team at DACFP and I am very satisfied with the education, support and experience that they have provided.

Ryan Semmelmayer
In October 2024, I was unemployed and looking to get into finance. I ventured into the crypto world and found DACFP. I got my Certificate in Blockchain and Digital Assets and started looking for jobs. A month later I was hired and have been thriving ever since. It’s all thanks to DACFP’s CBDA course and platform! 
Jett Bonner, iTrust Capital
After watching curiously from the periphery for several years while dodging questions about the digital asset world, I realized that this isn’t going away and therefore I needed to expand my knowledge about it. Ric and DACFP’s CBDA designation made it easy to follow, convenient and affordable to access, and even provided CE credits while I learned.

Every financial advisor and CFP® should complete the DACFP Certificate in Blockchain and Digital Assets. We owe it to our clients to be educated on a new asset class that is certainly here to stay. Blockchain and decentralized finance are two critical technologies that many still do not understand, but the DACFP course helps clarify that this innovation is more than just about Bitcoin.
