Carson Group says it is working with Barron’s in Education and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln to help educate potential next-generation advisors.
The business says this is the second university that it is working with to bring students free access to articles from the publication — the first being Creighton University’s Heider School of Business in Omaha. The University of Nebraska’s College of Business in Lincoln has about 4,400 students.
“It’s our aim to find top universities and expose students to the massive opportunity in the financial services profession,” according to Carson Group CEO Ron Carson, who attended the school.
With only 10% of financial advisors under age 35 today, Carson Group wants to “educate the next generation in the potential career path our industry can offer,” he explained. “And, it’s not just for aspiring financial advisors; marketing, investments, operations, technology — there’s a place for every skill set in our profession’s future.”
Close to 60% of Carson’s leadership team attended the University of Nebraska.
