“We also explain higher education pathways that advisers may not be aware of, such as study units that do not require classroom learning,” McConville said.

“The course also provides case studies to demonstrate the impact of the LIF remuneration structures on advisers’ business models and options for managing business efficiency and client engagement,” he added.

…some advisers were still uncertain about the timelines and requirements of the LIF changes…

McConville said that attendance and feedback from the Risk Academy indicated some advisers were still uncertain about the timelines and requirements of the LIF changes and that more than 200 advisers had attended the course already with many citing the clarification of the LIF reform timeframes as a highlight.

The course is presented by TAL General Manager of Legal, Chad Downie and TAL Sales Development Manager, Mitchell Ramsbotham. It can be accessed as on on-demand webinar and carries one CPD point accredited through the AFA and FPA.

The course is the second new addition to TAL’s Risk Academy which recently included a course on cancer awareness (see: TAL Offers Cancer Awareness Course), adding to the more than 30 courses already available through the online training portal (see: TAL Boosts Risk Academy With More Courses, CPD Points).
