Our PFS Financial Services Academies include:

As part of our Financial Services Academies, we manage all CII exam vouchers on your behalf. Pricing is based on CII member rates, meaning employees will need to be registered members in advance.

Exam resits are not included and can be arranged separately if required.

Each Financial Services Academy is supported by a dedicated learning pathway, tailored to the chosen CII module and expertly designed to build knowledge across core financial services topics. With full mobile and tablet compatibility, employees can access their learning on demand whenever and wherever it suits them.

Delivered via Microsoft Teams, employees attend live, tutor-led CII support workshops. These sessions simplify complex topics, strengthen exam preparation, and provide tailored study strategies, alongside valuable industry insight and motivation.

Delivered via Microsoft Teams, employees attend focused, tutor-led exam preparation webinars. These sessions help practise and refine their approach to answering exam questions, strengthen technique across each area of the syllabus, and build confidence through targeted exam-style practice and expert guidance on avoiding common pitfalls.

To set your employees up for success from the start of their qualification journey, we provide additional support in the form of our BTS Study Guides. Designed as a full replacement for the CII textbook, they feature clear, structured explanations supported by visuals, along with exam‑relevant activities, end‑of‑chapter questions, and a full mock exam for each CII module.

For Certificate and Diploma level modules, employees also benefit from access to BTS Study Buddy, our exam practice app, offering timed, exam‑standard questions, instant feedback, and progress tracking to build confidence from the outset.

Delivered via our LMS, employees follow a structured R06 case study analysis designed to guide exam preparation step by step. This E-learning breaks down each case study in detail, explores potential exam questions and answers, and provides practical guidance on how to approach the exam, supported by exam‑style practice and graphical crib sheets to reinforce key technical areas and build confidence ahead of the sitting.

Delivered via our LMS, employees have access to a comprehensive suite of study resources, including digital workshop materials, crib sheets, videos (for advanced modules), practice questions, and full mock exams. These resources support and enhance the learning journey, providing employees with the flexibility to access the content they need, whenever they need it.

Want to give your employees even more support?

We also offer E-learning for all R0 modules to target high-impact exam topics and break complex content into clear, visual, interactive modules that build and reinforce exam‑ready knowledge through flexible digital study. If you would like to include E-learning for R01-5, we can tailor your academy to meet these requirements.
