FSTP, the expert financial services specialist training and consultancy firm, has announced that it has received the Training Provider of Excellence accreditation from the CPD Standards Office, which is part of The Professional Development Consortium. FTSP is the first Milton Keynes
based company to receive this prestigious credential and one of only three providers within the UK’s Financial Services industry to achieve this status. Amanda Rosewarne, CEO at The
Professional Development Consortium, said: “We are thrilled to award this accreditation and marque of excellence to FSTP. Our research on the training industry, has demonstrated a strong demand for a mark of trust so consumers can make informed decisions and FSTP has demonstrated a standard of excellence across not only their
training provision, but their internal culture and commitment to their clients.” Julia Kirkland, senior partner at
FSTP, said: “We’re incredibly pleased to have obtained the CPD Training Provider of Excellence accreditation. It epitomises all the dedication and hard work our team carries out daily, to ensure that the information and learning experience we provide is of the utmost quality to each and every one of our clients.” The accreditation is especially
valuable due to the importance of CPD. The majority of Financial Services professionals need to complete a minimum of 35 hours of continuing professional development (CPD) annually. FSTP produces the full range of CPD earning activities including open and in-house courses, a monthly subscription e-journal, Advice Matters, and quarterly events.
