Welcome to the NFEC’s Advisory Board Incubator!

Thank you for your submission to our Advisory Board and your commitment to advancing financial literacy.

You have the experience, passion, and dedication we seek. To help you gain the public recognition required for board participation, we enhance your online presence and help you gain exposure and meet the standards of board members.

The Board Incubator Program was created for those individuals who are aligned with our mission and possess the passion we seek, but lack public prominence. Our goal is to establish your professional credibility and position you as a leader in financial education to further our shared cause.

We’re excited to support you on this journey!

Why Was I Directed to this Option? & NFEC Board Criteria

We did a quick evaluation of your online assets, looking at your Google organic search results, social media profiles, third-party features, and media mentions.  You did not meet the prominence, online recognition, and/or public recognition standards that we require of our board members.

Below are the exact criteria we used when determining your eligibility. If, after reading the list, you feel that our quick evaluation was incorrect – just let us know and we will do a closer review.
