CPD information
The focus of the FCA is on advisers taking their Continuous Professional Development (CPD) more seriously, and not just treating the requirement to keep their knowledge up to date as a tick-box exercise. We have designed our accredited CPD system to meet these requirements and on this page we include articles and presentations to help advisers meet their CPD and competence obligations and maximise the benefits from their CPD.

I also love the payment method and at less than £20 a month I will continue indefinitely, in fact everyone should take it!" Alan Moran FPFS Chartered Financial Planner, Interface Financial Planning Limited |
"Wizard Learning's CPD system includes a structured monthly update that covers all the major aspects of financial services. In addition the full CPD system's content is wide ranging and in depth.
