What is a Certified Senior Advisor (CSA)® ?
 
 
A Certified Senior Advisor is a professional dedicated to providing the highest quality of service possible to their Boomer and Senior Clients. A CSA must study and achieve 75% or higher on a certification exam to demonstrate that they understand the basic processes of aging, and how these processes influence the health, social and financial considerations of mature Canadians. For example, CSA’s learn about the physical, social and psychological aspects of aging, understand how grief and loss affect each of us, learn about financial and estate planning requirements, wellness, spirituality, and most importantly, the ethics of dealing with older clients.

All CSA’s must sign a Code of Professional Responsibility, and agree to abide by that Code, placing their clients best interests in the forefront at all times. These commitments are monitored by an independent Board of Standards, dedicated to preserving the integrity of the CSA designation.

CSA’s receive ongoing education about the unique needs of Canada’s aging population. Canadian CSA’s participate in the WORLD’s Largest Membership Organization educating people about aging - learning from the best, while sharing and representing the unique Canadian experience.

Certified Senior Advisors (CSA) have supplemented their individual professional licenses, credentials and education with knowledge about aging and working with seniors. Know what those licenses, credentials and education signify. The CSA designation does not imply expertise in financial, health or social matters.
