Supervisor Course (For Investment and Protection firms) *
Supervisor Course (For Investment and Protection firms)
ProtectionCompliance
Wednesday 10 June, 09.30-12.30
Online over 2 days - 10th & 11th June
Cost: £650 + VAT
What does the course entail?
The course follows a two-step format. First, participants receive pre-course materials designed to help them practice reviewing client interviews, assessing file reviews, and completing knowledge assessments based on their own governance arrangements (specifically, the firm’s Training & Competence plan). They will also test their understanding of SMCR in the context of their business activities.
The second part is the course itself. Conducted online via Microsoft Teams, the course spans two morning sessions (9:30 to 12:30). It includes a review of the pre-course work, discussions on key learning points, and an examination of a supervisor’s responsibilities to establish a competence and certification process for both the supervisors and the advisers they oversee.
These courses are appropriate for new supervisors as well as those who may have been in their roles for some time but have not refreshed their knowledge recently.
What does it cost?
The cost of each course, inclusive of pre-course work is £650+VAT. A second spot can be secured for an individual from the same firm at a reduced rate of £250+VAT. For firms needing a tailored course—especially those with multiple supervisors or wishing to conduct the training onsite—Paradigm is pleased to offer this for the cost of a Compliance Consultancy day.
We’d love to have you join us for one of these sessions. If you’re unsure whether the course is suitable for you or would like to talk to us about the wider compliance support available from Paradigm, please contact your dedicated Business Development Director (BDD). We provide extensive compliance and consultancy services to firms of all sizes and can tailor our support to a wide range of requirements.

I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for inviting me to the Paradigm Specialist Protection Event… This was the first event that I have been to in my new role as a Protection Adviser, and I have taken such a lot from it.
Linda
Puzzle Financial Solutions
Your events are always very welcoming, friendly and informative, so well worth attending with other like minded professionals.
Marilyn Holmes
Ashley Price Associates
I found the course very useful and I have come away with lots of action points to review. I also enjoyed the presentation style which certainly helped to keep our attention.
Gia Rhone
Cockburn Lucas
It was a great event and following Tim’s at Exeter Friendly’s presentation I have been able to place a tricky life case for a client with diabetes, so very worthwhile attending.
Mark Weller
Financial Profiles Limited
5/5 for relevance, delivery as promised, quality of presentation and handouts
I found the course extremely helpful and gave some good additional points of action that we are currently missing. Graeme taught the course amazingly, the right balance of information with the ability to go off track a little bit to clarify a few points
Katie Badiani
Compliance Manager from First Financial
“A really valuable Mortgage & Protection workshop. we learned so much which will no doubt convert to business. Two informative presentations plus 4 round tables covering several lenders and Insurance providers. We met great BDMs and industry colleagues, had a fantastic lunch and was back in the office all within 4 hours. Really worthwhile and a will be a permanent fixture in our diaries as a must attend event”.
Rachel Lummis
Mortgage & Protection Adviser at Xpress Mortgages
It is hard to get excited about compliance, but Graeme, you seem to, and it is infectious.
The course has raised a number of points that we will go away, review and implement. A fine refresher of some of the most recent pieces of regulation that have come into play.
