CII and Tenet help advisers reach Diploma level

One of Tenet's objectives is to deliver an effective package of support for advisers in progressing towards the CII's Diploma in Financial Planning, a qualification meeting the current regulatory requirements for a Level 4 qualification under the Retail Distribution Review. The package is being made available to all 5,500 advisers under the Tenet umbrella.

The package includes access to an extensive suite of learning support such as RevisionMate - an online support tool, audio CDs, examination guide and key fact booklet as well as the CII Study Text and Exam Preparation Course. Tenet is also providing study support in the form of face to face workshops and web based training for the most popular diploma units over the next 2 years.

Steve Aspinall, head of business development, financial services at the CII said, "Tenet's approach to improving professional standards is the latest example of leading organisations within the industry joining forces with the CII to support advisers’ reach, and hopefully surpass, the higher benchmark qualifications that the RDR has flagged. It shows that the momentum towards improved professionalism is continuing which can only be good for the industry and consumers."
