Supervisor Course (For Mortgage and Protection firms) - FULL: RESERVE LIST AVAILABLE *
Supervisor Course (For Mortgage and Protection firms) - FULL: RESERVE LIST AVAILABLE
MortgagesProtectionCompliance
Wednesday 4 December, 10.00-12.30
Online over 2 days - 4th & 5th December
Cost: £650 + VAT
A two-step approach is taken to the course. Initially, the delegate is provided with pre-course work which provides practice for delegates in reviewing client interviews, assessing file reviews, undertaking knowledge assessments based on their own governance arrangement (the firm’s Training & Competence plan) and test SMCR knowledge based on their own business activities.
The second step is the course itself. Held online using Microsoft Teams, and taking place over two morning sessions (9:30 to 12:30), the course entails reviewing the pre-course work, discussing any learning points taken and looking at a supervisor’s activities to determine how a competence and certification process can be put in place for both the supervisors themselves, as well as for the advisers they supervise.
As you would expect, the courses have been fully updated in light of the introduction of the Consumer Duty and each course is unique, dealing with current compliance themes and best practice standards.
The courses are suitable for both new supervisors and those who have been in the position for a period of time but who may not have topped up their knowledge and learning recently.
Firms are encouraged to follow up the course with support from the Paradigm Consultancy team. The team can assist in reviewing the actual supervisor’s work in-field when undertaking (for example) observed interviews, 1-2-1 and KPI meetings and certification/competence assessments of the advisers their supervise. We also offer a ‘check the checker’ approach for supervisors who undertake their own in-house file reviews.
What does it cost?
The cost of each course, which includes the pre-course work is £650+VAT, with a second place being made available at £250+VAT for an individual from the same firm.
Please note, this course is currently fully booked. To be added to the reserve list, please register.
For this webinar we’ll be discussing all things Buy to Let and sharing insights from true specialists in this market. We will explore the impact of the recent Budget on this space as well, helping to understand the relevant changes and identify opportunities. During the event we'll be hearing from specialists in this area covering topics such as;
An overview of the current BTL market
A council’s view on how they can work with Landlords
Sustainability in the BTL market
Tax & the implications for Landlords
Limited Company or Individual Ownership
Legal matters in BTL
* If you’re not yet subscribing to Paradigm’s compliance services, one of the Sales team will be in touch when we receive your registration to discuss this further and to arrange your attendance where possible.
I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for inviting me to the Paradigm Specialist Protection Event… This was the first event that I have been to in my new role as a Protection Adviser, and I have taken such a lot from it.

I found the course very useful and I have come away with lots of action points to review. I also enjoyed the presentation style which certainly helped to keep our attention.

It was a great event and following Tim’s at Exeter Friendly’s presentation I have been able to place a tricky life case for a client with diabetes, so very worthwhile attending.

5/5 for relevance, delivery as promised, quality of presentation and handouts
I found the course extremely helpful and gave some good additional points of action that we are currently missing. Graeme taught the course amazingly, the right balance of information with the ability to go off track a little bit to clarify a few points
Katie Badiani
Compliance Manager from First Financial
“A really valuable Mortgage & Protection workshop. we learned so much which will no doubt convert to business. Two informative presentations plus 4 round tables covering several lenders and Insurance providers. We met great BDMs and industry colleagues, had a fantastic lunch and was back in the office all within 4 hours. Really worthwhile and a will be a permanent fixture in our diaries as a must attend event”.
Rachel Lummis
Mortgage & Protection Adviser at Xpress Mortgages
It is hard to get excited about compliance, but Graeme, you seem to, and it is infectious.
The course has raised a number of points that we will go away, review and implement. A fine refresher of some of the most recent pieces of regulation that have come into play.
