Where do your CeFA training courses take place?
Futuretrend's CeFA training courses are held in Enfield in North London. Our training centre is at 81 Southbury Road, Enfield EN1 1PJ
The centre is within easy reach of the M25 and North Circular if travelling by car. We are near to Enfield Town train station which is roughly 25 minutes from (Central London) Liverpool street by train .
Can I pay for the training in instalments?
Yes, we have an easy instalment policy that you can pay while attending our training. Please give us a call on 020 8443 2888 and we can discuss your options and put together a payment plan that fits you.
Do the courses fees include IFS registration?
No, our training fees do not include the ifs registration, this payment can be made direct to the ifs or you can register with them through us.
Are there any extra costs that are not include in the price?
The price you are quoted is the price you pay with no hidden fees along the way.
If your courses are that good why are your prices considerably less than those of many of your competitors?
The answer is simple! In these hard times we are always looking to pass on as much savings as we can to our customers;Presently our overheads are covered by our IT training department which benefits via some funding from Enfield Council, we are therefore able to keep our CeMAP and CeFA training departments lean and efficient. Our reduced administration costs enable us to provide training at much better rates than our competitors whilst still achieving 90% + pass rates.
Additionally, we are not passing on the premiums charged for West End and City hotels and hired venues. We have our own training centre here in Enfield. We don't have to be assured of large numbers of attendees before we run a course like some other training providers do to justify how much they have to pay for hiring the space.
What is your method and style of teaching?
Our training is tutor led classroom based learning. You will be trained from start to finish by an experienced tutor working within the Financial industry taking you step by step through everything you need to know to pass your CeFA qualification.
Our method of study allows for the absorption of the CeFA program. We have created a winning combination of teaching principles and techniques that allows for a complete novice to change his / her vocation (whatever it was) to a lasting career as a Financial Advisor.
Can you help with seeking employment on completion of my full CeFA qualification?
Yes! we'd be delighted to help. We have an advisor on hand that can give you guidance and support in finding employment. We are also affiliated with many companies within the financial industry looking for fully qualified Financial Advisors. Occasionally, we have business development managers of these organisations come to give talks to our students regarding progression routes and the options available to them within the industry upon attaining their CeFA qualification.
However, please note that we strictly do not do go down the "we guarantee you a job" route in order to get your custom. We would strongly advise you to take a very cautious approach with any training company making such promises. Invariably all they are offering you is a self-employed role but you will pay a pretty premium for all this. After gaining your CeFA qualifications such roles will not be too hard to come by yourself. Don't get caught out this way!
I have no financial services background will this be a problem?
You do not need a mortgage or financial background to take our CeFA courses. Our part time weekend course is more suitable for those with absolutely no financial background. We will take you step by step and provide you the training you need to pass CeFA . Over the duration of the course the tutor will support you fully taking you through all the sections of the vast ifs syllabus.
What if after the training I don’t feel ready to sit the exam or don’t pass first time?
If for any reason you do not feel confident enough to take the exam, or if you are unfortunate not to pass your exam you can sit in on the courses or the selected modules again at no extra cost. Terms and conditions apply.
How do I register with the IFS school of finance?
You can contact the IFS school of finance on 01227 818609 or go to www.ifslearning.ac.uk
Are you recognised by the IFS school of finance?
We are a registered training provider who is duly signed up to the ifs code of conduct and are therefore obliged to be governed by it. You can see us on their DipFA page here:
What is the difference between CeFA and FPC?
CeFA is awarded by the IFS school of finance. FPC (now replaced by the CFP) is awarded by the Chartered Institute of Insurers.These are both recognised regulatory courses and they are on par with each other with regards to the FSA and course content.
Advantages/disadvantages of each?
With CFP you have more exams but the syllabus is spread out over these exams so should be easier to revise for. You can only do the exams at set times with the CFP so its not as flexible as CeFA exams.
CeFA, on the other hand, has less exams but means you have to do twice as much work... especially in CeFA 3. However, you have the added flexibility of being able to take the exams at anytime and with Pearson vue exam centres all over the world you aren't limited geographically.
