We believe that studying for a licensing exam can be a transformational experience. When stress is high and the stakes are higher, students are especially open to developing the habits and positive mindset that drive success. Everything we do is in the service of inspiring financial professionals to thrive. Over the past 30 years, we’ve helped hundreds of thousands of students walk confidently out our doors, into their securities exams, and onto the next stage of their careers.

We do things differently.

We offer a blended approach to learning. We invite students to combine the best of live and on-demand training. By personalizing the learning experience, our blended approach puts students in the strongest position to reach exam-readiness.
We bring the joy. Our company motto, "bring the joy," informs the student experience and the environment of curiosity, humor and collaboration that we’ve created at Knopman Marks. We make training fun with gamificaiton and engaging content.
