Recognition of the training courses by SAQ as recertification measures for the Client Advisor Bank certification


 

General Information

 

Training concept
Our training programme is tailored to the education and training obligations in the respective regulatory areas and enables licensed / registered financial intermediaries to meet the relevant requirements. The training courses are recognised by SAQ as recertification measures for the Client Advisor Bank certification and also offer bank employees an ideal opportunity for further training in the relevant areas. Our FinSA basic training and refresher courses are recognised by the Swiss adviser registers as well.

Conducting the online training courses
The training courses are conducted online and live via the Microsoft Teams application. Of course, you have the opportunity to actively participate and ask your individual questions. You will receive the relevant access information resp. the access link to the online training course immediately after registration. If you do not receive a confirmation, please check your spam resp. junk email folder or contact us.

Access to the online meeting will be open to you as soon as the training session starts. To keep the content of the webinars accessible after the event, the online sessions will be recorded.

If you are unable to attend the live training sessions on the available dates, you have the option of completing the relevant training in self-study with a supplementary test. Please note that an additional fee will be charged for self-study training. This additional fee also applies to gwp's co-/outsourcing clients. Thank you for your understanding.

Expansion of our training programme with web-based e-learning


We are excited to expand our training programme in cooperation with the Swiss Learning Hub to include innovative web-based e-learning formats. These new, additional training courses offer you flexible and completely autonomous further education – the training content is accessible 24/7 and allows you to complete the courses independently in self-study. You will receive a certificate upon successful completion of the e-learning.

The first e-learning module on sanctions is expected to be available from April 2025. You will be informed accordingly via our newsletter.
