RO4 (Pensions and Retirement Planning) Pre Exam Training, Tuesday 4th June 2019, Fareham

The Hants and Dorset PFS Regional Committee in association with the Insurance Institute of Southampton have organised a training day for those members who are studying for and taking the RO4 examination. Priority will be given to Hampshire based members of the PFS Hants and Dorset Region.

The committee have recently decided to increase the cost of our training events to £75 (plus a booking fee for online bookings only). This is to ensure that we can cover the costs of the trainers, any venue costs and ensure that we can host as many of these type of training days as possible in the calendar year. The course fee is in line with what our colleagues at Sussex charge their members.

The cost of the day’s training will be £76.25 for PFS members, £86.39 for non PFS members. Your attendance will be confirmed once the member has paid the course fee. To book please follow the online instructions on our events page https://www.localinstitutes.cii.co.uk/southampton/home/events/

There is a maximum of 12 attendees. If we are oversubscribed, you will be placed on a waiting list.

The day will commence at 0930 sharp (please arrive by 0915) and finish by 1645.

The venue is the Shogun Business Centre, 9a Funtley Court, 19 Funtley Hill, Funtley, Fareham, Hampshire, PO16 7UY. To book please follow online instructions.
