Event Information

What is the BTS R03 workshop like? Our workshop consists of two fun-packed days led by a BTS trainer, plus the company of other candidates in the same position as you. The R03 workshop will focus on the four Learning Outcomes for R03. Because of the format of the learning outcomes and the topics covered, we will be breaking the syllabus down into the various chapters: Income Tax, CGT, Direct Investments, Indirect Investments, IHT, Stamp duties, and Trusts. You will also spend time developing your question answering techniques and exam strategy. The CII are renowned for their ‘interesting’ use of language, so part of the road to an exam pass is getting used to this. R03 workshop dates are added to the events calendar throughout the year. If you can’t see a date that works for you, get in touch to ask about more options.

How to Use

The workshop is ideal either for some last minute exam revision, or if you are at the start of your studies and perhaps struggling a bit with all those calculations!

What makes the R03 workshop so useful?

A workshop is a live event where you can benefit not just from the BTS trainer but also from working alongside others studying for the same exam.

Discussions within the group can help to reassure you and improve your understanding of key exam areas.

You’ll get out of your day as much as you put in (and more!).

Delivery | Access

Book directly with the PFS using the ‘Book via PFS’ button.

Delivered on Zoom. Places are limited.

The two-day workshop will be held on a Friday and Monday.

Each day will commence at 09:30 sharp and finish by 16:30, with breaks timetabled for lunch etc throughout the day.

Event Information

What is the BTS R04 workshop like? Our workshop consists of two fun-packed days led by a BTS trainer, plus the company of other candidates in the same position as you. The workshop concentrates on honing your understanding and application of the heaviest-weighted learning outcomes in the R04 syllabus. With a subject as complex as R04 you need a facilitator that knows their stuff. BTS facilitators love pensions as a subject and are skilled at bringing key subjects to life through examples, visuals and exam style practice questions. Painting pictures is absolutely essential with pensions as your subject matter to ensure candidates both understand and can apply key concepts to exam style examples. You will also spend time developing your question answering techniques and exam strategy. The CII are renowned for their ‘interesting’ use of language, so part of the road to an exam pass is getting used to this. R04 workshop dates are added to the events calendar throughout the year. If you can’t see a date that works for you, get in touch to ask about more options.

How to Use

The workshop is ideal either for some last minute exam revision, or if you are at the start of your studies and perhaps struggling a bit with all those pension rules!
