PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING

If you are planning to provide debt advice in the UK, your organisation must usually have FCA authorisation which must be obtained before you open your service. You can complete training before, but must not operate unless you have FCA authorisation or are exempt (eg: local councils).

 

Anyone providing debt advice in a CMA affiliate centre, must be working towards the CMA Level 3 Award in Generalist Debt Advice by successfully completing Parts 1, 2 and 3 in sequence, as this is a CMA affiliation requirement. If for any reason you believe that you have other MaPS accredited training to Advice Level, please email us to discuss.

 

It is a pre-requisite before booking onto the CMA Level 4 Award (Parts 4 and 5) that the delegate has already successfully completed the CMA Level 3 Award (or MaPS equivalent training at Advice Level).
