New gap-filling option exclusive to CFPCM professionals
Institute of Financial Planning
For CFP professionals who prefer the idea of taking a further exam to doing CPD, Calibrand and the Institute of Financial Planning have launched two short exams which will fill the gaps and award professionals with the full Diploma in Professional Financial Advice from Calibrand/SQA.
The Diploma is an FSA approved RDR level 4 qualification that covers 100% of the RDR learning outcomes and therefore requires no further gap-fill.
| Unit | Syllabus Covered | Questions | Pass Mark | Exam Duration | Guided Learning Hours |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total Cost inc VAT | £400 | ||||
| CFP 1 - Financial Services, Regulation and Ethics | ALL | 80 | 65% | 90 mins | 60 |
| CFP 2 – Combination Unit for CFP professionals | CFP ‘gap’ (Units 2-6) | 80 | 65% | 90 mins | 60 |
If you have already completed R01 this will be accepted as an alternative to Unit 1 above and will reduce the cost to £256.00 including VAT. As with all Calibrand examinations, learning materials are free of charge and free practice tests are available.
