2-hr Continuing Education Course (See details below.)

We presented this training at the 2021 IFDF Annual Conference & Trade Show back in June and received glowing feedback from those in attendance. Whether you are a current participant in the I-Trust, or are considering trusting with us, funeral homeowners and their preneed staff need to attend this webinar.

This is IFDF's premier training workshop on the Master Trust. This 2-hour continue education course will provide information on all aspects of the I-Trust (member benefits, ease of administration, investment options, and marketing to families). This course is open to I-Trust firm members and non-members, but it is free to IFDF members.

The I-Trust is recogn.ized nationally as a leader in processes, returns on investments and lower costs than most others in the county. The I-Trust training webinar will focus on the three components of the IFDF Master Trust in one presentation. (1) Argent Trust, our Trustee bank, will discuss the fiduciary responsibilities of the preneed trustee, focusing on duties specific to the I-Trust. (2) ASI, our trust administrator, will take us through the history of the I-Trust, the benefits of participation and the mechanics of the trust. (3) Gables Capital Management, our investment manager, will provide an overview of the investments and performance tracking. You will find out not only find out how to participate in the trust, but also how to get the most out of your participation.

Find out just how EASY it is to Trust with us and how historically SUCCESSFUL our investment strategies have been so that you can start earning consistent revenue through your preneed department! This is an amazing opportunity to learn from our team of experts.
