Career Pathway
The graduate/new entrant training scheme
This scheme has been designed based on international research. The scheme is an architectural scheme i.e. it gives detail on all that needs to happen by way of new entrant training on skills, knowledge and behaviours. It is set out in 12 categories and is designed to take a new entrant through to become a Certified Financial Planner in 7 years. It provides the structure, highlights the recommended training courses for both skills and knowledge development, sets out what is required by the lead planner/business owner and other staff. This ensures that the new entrant sees themselves progressing along the categories. It can accommodate CII, PMA and CISI exams along the way and does include specialisms such as STEP exams as well.
Learn Faster On The Job
So many training schemes concentrate on just obtaining exams, often with some ad-hoc skills training added towards the end of the scheme. We have designed ours differently. Our emphasis is on how to recruit the right person by identifying their natural traits, explaining your firm’s vision and ensures that the new team member gains hands-on experience at an early stage so can learn faster on the job and gain technical knowledge at the same time. There are books, courses and exams all to take as the firm sees fit.
