October R06 results are in, and we had many BTS candidates opening the bubbly early this morning!
So, what does achievement of the CII level 4 Diploma in Regulated Financial Planning mean? What comes next?
Individuals can now use the post-nominal letters Dip PFS after their names and apply for a Statement of Professional Standing (SPS). A SPS is of course required if you are going to practice as a financial planner.
A certificate is sent by the CII confirming that the individual has successfully achieved the Diploma in Regulated Financial Planning. This usually takes a few weeks to arrive (frame it after all that hard work!)
If I am currently a CII member do I need to join the PFS?
Members of the CII are automatically PFS members and you will see your membership fee increase now that you are qualified, but you do need to be a member to use the PFS post-nominal letters.
Well done to our successful candidates – one BTS R06 group achieved a 92% pass rate whilst another group came in with a full house 100% pass rate. A real testament to the graft and practice these candidates put in, in the lead up to the exam. Congratulations!
