This is the fourth year that Winthrop has been invited to participate, noted Philip Gibson, professor of finance and director of Winthrop’s financial planning program.
“The students’ resumes will be added to a resume book, and they will be invited to attend a career fair just for the students in attendance,” Gibson said. “This conference will give students the opportunity to network and learn from some of the thought leaders in financial planning.”
Gibson also thanked Schwab Advisor Services for the invitation and the Charles Schwab Foundation for making the grant funds possible.
