Two pathways for developing financial advisers

The Adviser Academy offers two structured programs designed to support financial advisers at different stages of their development.

The Comprehensive Program supports advisers progressing through their Professional Year or looking to deepen their capability across the full advice process.

The mentorship at The Adviser Academy was the cornerstone of my Professional Year. From the technical rigour of maintaining my logbook and preparing for audits to the pressure of the Financial Adviser Exam, Fei and Brayden provided the perfect balance of guidance and resources. Beyond the technical requirements, they truly excelled in coaching me using real-world experiences to ensure I could confidently navigate the client journey while fulfilling my best interest duties.

What I found most valuable about the Academy was the structured yet supportive approach to learning. The program didn’t just focus on technical knowledge and compliance, but on how to think like an adviser, understanding client needs, applying advice in real world scenarios, and building confidence in decision making.
