If you’ve already received advice, the course provides a valuable second opinion from a neutral perspective, helping you validate recommendations, identify potential gaps, and make more confident decisions.

What are the technical requirements?

A computer with internet access. Available 24/7. Microsoft Edge Browsers are recommended, but the course works on all major browsers. 

Online or in-person? Which is better?

For years, different organisations have been offering in-person courses and workshops. However, these workshops are generally not specific to you. In addition, low-cost or free courses often involve selling a product.  This course is neutral and the solutions can be personalised to you. No products are sold. You can learn at your own pace, and use our tools freely to find the right solution for you. You have a lifelong access to the digital tools and resources, and you get to save on travel costs. 

How much time should I set aside for the course?

If you want to complete the course all in one go, set aside about 8-12 hours. Of course, this assumes you already have the necessary documents and know what you want. Our recommendation, however, is to work through the course step-by-step, dedicating about 3-4 hours per week. 

How long can I access the platform? 

By default, you have access for 90 days. IF you need more time, send me a message using the contact form.  

Can I still access course content after it ends ? 

Absolutely! You can download the contents onto your computer in order to use them for as long as you like. 

How up-to-date is the course?

The course content is continuously updated. So, you get access to the latest and most relevant information. 

I am a beginner! Is it too difficult for me? 

No, quite the opposite! This course is designed for beginners with no prior knowledge.  I will explain to you all the terms and concepts from the world of pensions and finance clearly and in simple terms. Bonus: if you do have any questions, you can ask them at any time during the live sessions.

Is it worth it if I am a financial professional?

Yes, absolutely! I have yet to meet a client who would not benefit from this course.  The course brings together a wide range of topics. Prior knowledge in a specific finance area is an advantage, but with this course, you gain a 360° perspective. This helps you connect the different topics to see the bigger picture.
