What is a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA)?
Launched in 2016, the Certified Kingdom Advisor program aims to couple financial services with a Christian perspective to help clients plan and act in accordance with their Christian beliefs and principles. CKAs are trained to apply biblical wisdom when providing their services and agree to practice and espouse the Kingdom Advisors Code of Ethics.
Certified Kingdom Advisor® is a designation granted by Kingdom Advisors to individuals who have demonstrated themselves to be:
- Able to apply biblical wisdom in counsel by successfully completing the Certified Kingdom Advisor® coursework and examination.
- Technically competent by providing evidence of an approved professional designation (varying by discipline) or by having at least 10 years full-time experience in their discipline.
- Ethical by agreeing to espouse and practice the Kingdom Advisors Code of Ethics, by maintaining active local church involvement, and by providing pastoral and client letters of reference.
- Biblical stewards by pledging that they practice biblical stewardship in their personal and professional lives and by giving regularly in proportion to their income.
