Diverger offers CPD platform to advisers
Diverger has expanded its service offering with a continuing professional development (CPD) and technical support platform for advisers.
Through education brand, Knowledge Shop, the new service would provide advisers with a technical helpdesk service covering compliance, tax, ethics and superannuation.
It also provided CPD content so practices and licensees could track and measure their CPD at an adviser and organisation-wide level.
The service was previously only available to accountants but had been started to be used by financial advisers to prepare for the financial adviser exam. This, combined with the growth of small independent advice practices, had created “significant demand for a one-stop-shop”, the firm said.
Lisa Armstrong, managing director at Knowledge Shop said: “We are thrilled to be expanding Knowledge Shop’s member services to financial advisers. While professional standards are vital in building a trusted profession, they need to be well supported and currently there is a missing link to how this translates to the daily work advisers perform.
“No one adviser can know everything that their client’s need. The adviser membership and CPD offer provides that certainty and a way of test-checking thinking.”
