The Fold launches FOFA offering online
Legal advisory firm The Fold has moved to enhance the availability of its FOFA White Pages offering into an online product.
The company's managing director, Claire Wivell Plater, said the group had moved to meet the need of advisers for legally compliant information via the online offering, with each course carrying continuing professional development (CPD) points.
She said the courses could be accessed via desktop computers and mobile devices such as iPads and iPhones.
"The courses are written in the engaging style for which The Fold is renowned and cover every element of the reform," Wivell Plater said.
She said participants could also download a copy of the related Everything They Need to Know White Papers, which succinctly summarise the requirements and provide an indispensable implementation guide.
