LEAD A FINANCIAL PEACE UNIVERSITY CLASS
People need to know the truth—that they CAN win with money. Join us on the mission to help them crush debt, ditch money stress, and take control of their futures. As an FPU coordinator, you’ll help people say “never again!” to money being an obstacle to living the life they've always dreamed of.

WHO CAN BE AN FPU COORDINATOR?
Anyone. That means you too.
Each year, we partner with thousands of rock-star coordinators who change the lives of millions of people. (Yeah. It’s a pretty huge deal.)
They aren’t know-it-all finance pros—just regular folks with a heart to help others. Dave and his team handle all the teaching. And a dedicated advisor walks with you every step of the way.
HOW DOES LEADING FPU WORK?

We get it. This money thing is big. But volunteering to lead an FPU class is simple.
You’ll start by scheduling your class and choosing a class format. Then, invite people to join. Over nine lessons, you’ll lead your members through discussions and activities, following the video lessons. Your job isn’t to fix anyone—it’s to provide hope and support. That’s how you start making a difference.

Short on time? Can’t leave home? No problem! Pick the class format that best suits your lifestyle.

Can someone else lead with me?
-
Sure thing! Anyone can be a co-coordinator, including your spouse or a friend.
-
How many people are required to be in my group?

A group can be as large or as small as you’d like. You can close your group to the public and only invite people you know, or you can open it for anyone in your area to find. The average group size is around seven people.
-
How do people join my class?
-
Your class will have its own webpage you can share with anyone interested in joining. On this page, people can register for your class. If you open your class to the public, people will be able to find your webpage on ramseysolutions.com. But if you mark your class as private, then only those you share your webpage with will be able to join.
-
Can I lead a class if I’ve never taken FPU?
-
Yes! And we encourage that. In fact, 40% of coordinators take the class for the first time while they are leading it. You can treat coordinating FPU like leading a small group, where you study with the group and facilitate it at the same time.
-
What do class members need?
-
Before joining your class, members will need to purchase Financial Peace University, which they can buy directly from your unique class link (found on your Coordinator Dashboard). Once they've created an account, they can download their digital member workbook and immediately access all of the lessons.
