Where do your DipFA® training courses take place?
Futuretrend's DipFA® training courses are held in Enfield in North London. Our training centre is at 81 Southbury Road, enfield EN1 1PJ
The centre is within easy reach of the M25 and North Circular if travelling by car. We are near to Enfield Town train station which is roughly 25 minutes from Liverpool street (Central London) by train.
Training takes place in an elegant victorian house, quiet and very conducive to learning and studying for DipFA® .

 

Can I pay for the training in instalments?
Yes, we have an easy instalment policy that you can pay while attending our training. Please give us a call on 020 8443 2888 and we can discuss your options and put together a payment plan that fits you.

 

Do the course fees include Exam registration?
No, our training fees do not include the exam registration, this payment can be made direct to the ifs School of Finance. Once you have decided you want to train with us let them know when you are registering so they can give you a £100 discount off your exam fees.

 

Are there any extra costs that are not included in the price?
The price you are quoted is the price you pay with no hidden fees along the way.

 

 

For the coursework module (AFA 2) Can I just do the two day coursework workshop?
Yes we've noticed that many advisors with prior knowlege of investments, retirement planning and pensions do not need the AFA top up (technical) option except they just need to brush up on things. If that sounds like you then you might just want to do the revision course version or the final day which contains course structure, referencing articles

 

If your courses are that good why are your prices considerably less than those of many of your competitors?
The answer is simple! In these hard times we are always looking to pass on as much savings as we can to our customers;Presently our overheads are covered by our IT training department which benefits via some funding from Enfield Council, we are therefore able to keep our Financial training departments lean and efficient. Our reduced administration costs enable us to provide training at much better rates than our competitors whilst still achieving 90% + pass rates.

Additionally, we are not passing on the premiums charged for West End and City hotels and hired venues. We have our own training centre here in Enfield. We don't have to be assured of large numbers of attendees before we run a course like some other training providers do to justify how much they have to pay for hiring the space.




We have found much cheaper DipFA® courses ...can you do yours any for any less?

We believe our courses are very fairly priced.
Poor quality training providers compete on discounts and rock bottom prices .. we would rather provide value added service and delivery.

Questions you must ask:
How many days training do they provide for DipFA® FSRE? We provide 5 full days of DipFA® teaching.

How many days training do they provide for DipFA® AFA Coursework & AFA Exam? Again we provide 2 full days of coursework preparation and 1 day for the exam workshop.

How many people do they have on a course? Anything over 10 means you will have trouble interacting with the tutor. We provide you with a highly focused environment away from all distractions; Our DipFA® class sizes accomodate a maximum of 8 students.... so you can be assured that you will study in a relatively small group.

 

What is your method or style of teaching?
Our training is mainly tutor-led classroom based learning. You will be trained from start to finish by an experienced tutor working within the Financial industry taking you step by step through everything you need to know to pass your DipFA® qualification.
Our method of study allows for the absorption of the DipFA® program.

 

Can you help with seeking employment on completion of my full DipFA® qualification?
We have an advisor on hand that can give you guidance and support in finding employment. We are also affiliated with many intermediaries and companies within the financial industry looking for fully qualified financial Advisors. We will be more than happy, once you have passed your exams, to review your CV and then send it off to relevant organisations.
Occasionally, we have the business development managers of such organisations come to give talks to our students regarding progression routes and the options available to them within the industry upon attaining their DipFA® qualification.

 

I have no financial background will this be a problem?
You do not need a financial background to take our DipFA® courses. Regardless of whether you have been a Banker for 18 years or an 18 year old who has recently chosen Financial Advice as a career path, when you come to our Centre you leave what you think you know at the door and allow us to guide you on how to get through this exam successfully.

We will take you step by step and provide you the training you need to pass DipFA® . Over the duration of the course the tutor will support you fully taking you through all the sections of the vast ifs syllabus.

 

What if after the training I don’t feel ready to sit the exam or don’t pass first time?
If for any reason you do not feel confident enough to take the exam, or if you are unfortunate not to pass your exam you can sit in on the courses or the selected modules again at no extra cost. Terms and Conditions apply.

 

How do I register with the IFS?
You can contact the IFS on 01227 818609 or go to www.ifslearning.ac.uk


Are you recognised by the IFS school of finance?
