Online training tool upgraded with role-specific, interactive case studies

Broker ASSESS has been officially relaunched at the Biba 2012 conference.

The online training and competency resource has been developed to provide comprehensive training and CPD needs.

It has an intuitive user interface, easy-to-use search and browse for content features, more powerful management and reporting functions, and integration with wider CII and Biba broker services.

The range of industry-specific content focuses on improving brokers’ understanding of how regulation impacts on their everyday business practices. The new content includes a series of role-specific, interactive case studies focused specifically on the broker market plus a range of other context-based resources.

In February this year, Broker ASSESS was awarded 2012 Microsoft Learning Technology Solution of the Year at the Learning and Performance Institute (LPI) awards.

The LPI judges recognised Broker ASSESS as an effective use of learning technologies, covering core skills, development and CPD.

Biba chief executive Eric Galbraith, who unveiled the newly enhanced product, said: “The system has had a huge impact helping many brokers to demonstrate that they are meeting FSA training and competency regulations. The upgraded system is a testament to the hard work of the Broker ASSESS team and the brokers on the working groups who have helped to developed the system even further.”

CII director of financial markets Steve Jenkins said: “We have totally refreshed the content to support regulatory learning and assessments. Broker ASSESS is now even simpler and more intuitive to use. One-touch reports are available for managers, compliance and training managers, and we will shortly be introducing online appraisals and file checking to support brokers.”
