The Chartered Insurance Institute (CII) level 4 Diploma in Regulated Financial Planning is made up of six core modules, commonly referred to as the R0 exams. The level 4 Diploma in Regulated Financial Planning meets the FCA’s qualification requirements for retail investment advisers.
BTS offer support for each R0 module and we love taking candidates through from R01, when they start their journey, to R06 when they finally achieve their CII Diploma in Regulated Financial Planning. As the R0 exams are what we are all about, we thought it made sense to tell you a little more about each of them.
