upcoming workshopsIf you’re based in the North East and looking to start a career in financial services then look no further than The Grad Scheme. It’s the talent programme that offers fully paid employment opportunities for The Verve Group – a powerhouse organisation that offers advisory support services. As well as learning the ropes, they also fund your professional qualifications.
live vacanciesThat’s right, for free. Our friends (well, actually family) at The Verve Foundation are a great not-for-profit organisation that offer fully-funded spaces for their We Are Change programme. It’s a unique opportunity to get the industry known qualifications you need completely free. All it will cost you is true grit determination and some late-night study sessions.
free trainingMany believe the only role in finance is that of the financial adviser. It’s a great role with great rewards but there’s many more roles that are available too, just often overlooked. Not by us though – we believe no one role suits all. From paraplanning to investments, administration to marketing you can start to learn about what might be the best role for you.
career adviceThe Art of Compliance course was very easy to follow and the end of module assessments allowed me to highlight the areas I need to focus on. A great mix of the practicalities and knowledge required for a role in compliance.
The course gave me the tools and knowledge to understand different products and procedures and has really helped me to advance my role at work. The online modules and practice tests are really useful!
An excellent course that has helped me gain confidence in writing reports. The e-learning and workshops really help to break down the heavy CII content and really help to hammer home all of the information.
I would rate The Art of Administration as excellent and would recommend to others within financial services. The programme has already given me ideas on how to improve our procedures within the team.
