TAL Risk Academy reveals course guide for the second half of the year
Media Release -Leading Australian life insurer TAL has announced the course program for July to December 2023 for its financial adviser education platform, TAL Risk Academy.
The tailored program introduces six new courses and builds on strong uptake in the first half of the year, including over 1,700 advisers enrolled during May’s Ethics Month courses.
TAL General Manager, Retail Sales and New Business, Beau Riley, said: “Through a blend of interactive workshops, online resources, and networking opportunities, TAL Risk Academy continues to support advisers in gaining practical skills and insights to help them navigate today’s dynamic financial advice landscape.
“At TAL, our ambition is to make life insurance better understood and valued, and our partnership with advisers is important to achieving that, while ensuring more Australians have the right protection in place.
“We have collaborated with industry experts to develop a program that encompasses a wide range of topics, so that TAL Risk Academy can serve as a cornerstone in fulfilling the education needs of advisers, including meeting their CPD hour requirements.”
New to the course guide is Advice in the Postmodern World Masterclass, and the Council of Australian Life Insurers (CALI) session, alongside the continuation of the AskAnExpert monthly Tech Series, Mental Health series, and ongoing support of Professional Year.
“Our new, industry-first masterclass, Advice in the Postmodern World, is a unique opportunity to hear from the TAL Technical Team as they examine the recommendations of the Quality of Advice Review and its impacts on advisers. While the Future of Insurance Webinar will be the first time we are joined by CALI CEO, Christine Cupitt, to discuss the future of the life insurance industry.
“In an era of technological advancements and regulatory changes, our program is designed to empower advisers with the latest industry knowledge, best practices, and risk management strategies to support them to provide exceptional advice and value to their clients,” said Mr Riley.
