Financial Training Associates: Now Accredited for Providing Legal CPD Training Courses by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA)

Financial Training Associates Ltd, a provider of finance training courses, has now achieved accreditation with the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA). As a result, Lawyers can confidently use Financial Training Associates to help meet SRA requirements for continuous professional development (CPD).

Business Development Director, Joanna Smith commented: “The SRA reported back on our courses in great detail. Talk about glowing! We know our courses go down well with our current clients but we were wonderfully surprised at the strength of the positive reaction from the SRA. It’s a great encouragement for all our staff and endorsement of what they do”.

According to the report from the SRA’s assessor:

- Course content “is clearly set out… maintains delegates’ interests and allows the material to be adapted to their specific needs”;

- Courses are “taught using a variety of methods, note-taking is encouraged and questions and discussions are actively encouraged with group exercises also being implemented…”; and

- Materials are “clearly organised… they are well-presented and will form an excellent aide memoir for delegates post-event… The materials easily cover the aims and intended learning outcomes… Delegates will benefit greatly… The materials are excellent, they are presented in such a manner which [indicates that the trainer] has a thorough knowledge/understanding of the work”.

The SRA’s report concludes with the assessor saying: “I have no hesitation in recommending this course”.

According to Mrs Smith, Financial Training Associates has established itself as a company providing finance training courses to institutions.

“Obviously our courses are well received by our existing clients, and we knew that members of the legal profession had already expressed in interest in what we teach, but we had never imagined that the SRA would respond so positively to our courses.”
