2. âOne of the first things I noticed when I went to work for Edward JonesÂź, even when I was in the training phase and studying for my Series 7, was the amount of support I got from the home office. It was unbelievable.â Mary Ann Weeks Financial Advisor Stanwood, WA Level 1: Reaction Kirkpatrickâs Four Level Model
3. Q: How long was the training period, and how would you describe it?A: The initial training period was two months, plus field training, so about four months all together. It was excellent training. They take you from A to Z. This was totally different from being in petrochemical sales. With Edward Jones, itâs all about the client. In my prior experience, the customer knew what he or she wanted; all I needed to do was get the right price for the product. This was different â this was about people, about their lives. The training was incredible, from the mentors to the field trainer. It was awesome. It was the best experience Iâve ever had. Q: Was the training difficult?A: Yes, it was. In fact, my first two years were a blur â new experiences and lots of hard work. You have to know what youâre working for, and as long as you can envision it, youâre going to be successful. You just have to roll up your sleeves and get into it. CynthiaWemyssFinancialAdvisorLos Altos, CA Level 1: Reaction (continued) Kirkpatrickâs Four Level Model

8. The Benefits of Training at Edward JonesÂź Before a person can become a financial advisor they must pass at least two exams, the General Securities Registered Representative Examination (Series 7) and a Uniform Combined State Law Examination (Series 66).

However, rather than a prerequisite leaving the hopeful financial advisor to fend for themselves, Edward JonesÂź provides a 10 week, detailed, in-home self study training as well necessary tools such as a laptop and printer to aid in the completion of this phase of training. The learner receives a salary from Edward JonesÂź during this training period. People participating in this training have a 90% success rate as compared to the rest of the industry averaging a 66% success rate. Success Case Method
9. The Benefits of Training at Edward JonesÂź (continued) According to the Edward JonesÂź website, the main reason for failure is the failure to stay focused and failure to commit the 45 hours per week required in the 10 week training session. On the contrary, financial advisors that pass the Series 7 and Series 66 exams go on to further training with Edward JonesÂź and successful careers. Edward JonesÂź boasts spending between $60,000 and $70,000 dollars on each new financial advisor. They believe this to be a very good investment rather than a cost to the company. Success Case Method
10. The Benefits of Training at Edward JonesÂź (continued) Mark Vivian When Mark Vivian, an Edward JonesÂź Financial Advisor , was questioned about his training experience with Edward Jones, some of his statements included, âThey put a lot of money out, and they want to make sure you succeed. At my previous firm, we worked and then received the training. But itâs much better to get the training first so when you meet new clients, you feel more comfortable and at ease with them. Iâve seen several firmsâ training programs and curriculums, and Edward Jones has the best training program hands down â the best training program out there.â One of Mark Vivianâs clients had this to say about him, âMark Vivian in this Edward Jones office has been our financial advisor for many years. He was recommended by a friend, and we have since made recommendations to our friends because of his service. He provides what we have requested, listens to our needs and points out directions which make sense at every point in our financial lives. He is an outstanding and intelligent young man, and we rely on his good advise and assistance.â Mark is one of many successful Edward JonesÂź Financial Advisors. Success Case Method
