Learning provider Redmill Advance has announced that it will deliver its training solutions for Benchmark Capital and Wealth at Work.
Benchmark, part of the Schroders Group, has launched a new Academy focused on developing the professional skills needed to become a chartered financial planner.
Aimed at advisers, administrators and paraplanners, the objective is to help individuals achieve their regulatory qualifications whilst embedding the client relationship and service skills needed to deliver the best possible client outcomes.
Redmill will help the Academy provide structured training solutions through a blend of eLearning, digital support and live or virtual training.
David Tait, co-founder and director of Redmill Advance, said: “We are strongly aligned to Benchmark’s aims of creating the next generation of financial planning talent and are delighted to partner with them. The Benchmark Academy programme has been designed using our blended, fully digital, learning solutions and we believe it will provide the broad skill sets required to operate at the very highest standards.
“We are looking forward to working with Benchmark and their adviser firms in supporting the next generation of candidates and welcome those just embarking on their journey and look forward to their positive results in due course.”
Redmill is also working alongside Wealth at Work to implement CII and CISI exam support, compliance soft-skill and leadership learning pathways.
Wealth at Work’s employees can access exam support modules as well as learning models, including mandatory topics such as regulatory compliance, innovation and change leadership management as well as colleague and personal wellbeing.
Tait said: “I am delighted to welcome Wealth at work to our growing list of clients. From early conversations it was clear the company fosters an inclusive and supportive culture. I have no doubt our digital solutions will add value to the company and I look forward to working with the business over many years.”
Paul Morton, investment planning director at Wealth at Work, commented: “We are delighted to be partnering with Redmill Advance. As a leading provider of financial education in the workplace, we are committed to helping our own employees achieve the high levels of knowledge required to fulfil their roles and attain professional qualifications to develop their careers.
“The extensive range of flexible learning solutions on offer, together with the support available, will allow us to expand and develop the technical capability of our employees that is so vital to the services we provide.”
