The Academy offers affordable courses for lawyers and accountants who service or come into contact with financial services companies and who want to take charge of their own learning and development with evidence of proficiency for continuing professional development purposes. Once you buy a course, you can access its content forever (even after you have taken the exam) and so keep referring back to it as a personal resource.
Our courses are focused on practical issues and problems faced daily by lawyers and accountants who deal with financial services firms who might not have FCA regulatory expertise within their practice. This includes understanding whether your client's business model means they are acting illegally, whether they are issuing illegal financial promotions or your duties as an auditor of different types of firms, especially in relation to safeguarding and client money audits.
We will be launching the Academy on 5th July 2024 with 2 initial courses:
Courses in development and due to be launched in the coming months include:
Financial promotions regulation - a primer for lawyers and accountants
EMI/PSR safeguarding audits
Courses are designed by our Managing partner, Gary Pitts, a highly-rated public and in-house trainer with over 30 years of experience as a compliance practitioner and consultant across investment, fintech, consumer credit and insurance. Gary also delivers courses for CTP (https://www.ctp.uk.com/) The Investment and Savings Association (https://www.tisa.uk.com/) and MBL Seminars (https://www.mblseminars.com/)
We undertake to add at least one new course per month to our catalogue and we will be announcing the launches via LinkedIn or email.
