Faculty Introduction
My name is Dr. Mitchell
Miller, CFP®. Personally and professionally, I’m an entrepreneur, educator,
author, and practicing Certified Financial Planner®, residing in Boynton Beach,
Florida.
In a previous
career, I was a corporate executive and senior manager for twenty-plus years
with such global, integrated professional service firms such as KPMG LLP,
Arthur Andersen LLP, and Lincoln Financial Advisors. I have been privileged to
serve as a vice president for a private, Miami-based, $150 million financial
services organization and for more than 14 years was a regional consultant and
manager for a publicly held corporation.
Academically, I
earned my Bachelor of Arts degree in Economics from Brooklyn College, Master of
Business Administration in Corporate Finance from Pace University’s graduate
school of business, and attended the College for Financial Planning, completing
the CFP® Professional Education Program. My DBA in finance was earned from the
H. Wayne Huizenga School of Business & Entrepreneurship, Nova Southeastern
University. My dissertation subject was Modern Portfolio Theory.
As a practicing Certified Financial Planner (CFP®), I provide investment advisory and financial planning services for my clientele. I also research and write articles on investment related subjects.

Course Attendance and Participation Policy
During the first week of class, you must complete an
activity from the online orientation or you will be withdrawn from the course.
Simply logging into the course will not satisfy your attendance during this
time. As with an on-campus course, students who are reported for non-attendance
in an online course and are withdrawn are still responsible for paying for the
course. If you do not complete the requirements of the first week of class,
you should drop the course by the official drop/add deadline or expect to pay
for the course.
It is very important for you to actively participate in this
online class. If you stop participating in class discussions, do not submit
assignments, or fail to take quizzes or tests prior to the withdrawal date, you
will be withdrawn from class and receive a W or, if it is your third attempt,
an F.
If you stop participating after the withdrawal date, you will receive an F. To avoid this situation, you should remain an active learner in this class and always communicate extenuating circumstances to your instructor. Ongoing communication with the instructor is critical to your course success. Completion of tests, assignments, and other class activities are used as indicators of your participation in order to satisfy this reporting requirement. See the list of activities required for participation and attendance on the General Course Policies page.
