Certified financial counselors are equipped with the knowledge and expertise to provide industry-recognized financial guidance and counseling services tailored to each member's unique needs and circumstances. By investing in this service, Piedmont Advantage’s employees are empowered to help members to make informed financial decisions.

Piedmont Advantage’s certified financial counselors are trained to address a wide range of financial topics, such as, but not limited to, budgeting, debt management, credit building and homeownership. They work closely with members to develop personalized financial plans, identify areas for improvement and provide ongoing support and guidance throughout their financial journey.

"At Piedmont Advantage Credit Union, we are committed to the financial well-being of our members. We understand that navigating the complexities of personal finance can be overwhelming, and that's why we are thrilled to introduce our in-house certified financial counselors with this first cohort."

The introduction of in-house certified financial counselors aligns with the credit union’s Simply Service® promise to continuously pursue exceptional member service and support. “A commitment to exceptional service is never-ending.
