Welcome to Brand Financial Training

"At the age of 20 I became the youngest person to hold the CII Diploma. I achieved this through hard work and the use of resources including those provided by Brand Financial Training; in particular the mock exams, study notes and the extremely helpful Calculation Workbooks. I'm now moving forward with the Advanced Diploma and continue to use Brand Financial Training's resources to aid my progression to Chartered Status. I certainly recommend them."

I signed up for the analysis of the R06 case study for sitting my final exam in April and the team at Brand Financial Training sent over the analysis about 10 days before the exam and it was incredibly useful! It analysed past exams, with what questions were asked, common themes, and most importantly of all, predictions of what questions will come up on the current case study and their analysis of the case studies. The whole package was written succinctly and in a user-friendly way making it really easy to study (unlike a lot of the 'normal' study materials you find elsewhere). After studying the analysis for ten days I couldn't have been more prepared for the exam on the day and as a result, I went into the exam much calmer than I would have done otherwise which can make a big difference on the day of the exam.

I did pass - actually, I’ve now completed the Advanced Diploma and achieved Chartered status, passed every exam from level 3-6 first time and can honestly say the Brand materials were essential and I would not have had the journey I have without them.

"Pleased to inform you I passed! I just want to thank you for your calculation work book as I would not have Passed without it. Thanks for an excellent personal service and encouragement."

"The calculation work book for AF4 was really helpful. A question on Return on Equity came up and I'd literally only come across this in the Brand workbook. Glad to say I passed the exam with flying colours!"

I relied on the AF5 analysis heavily for my exam and was delighted to receive the pass. I would always recommend the team at Brand for their resources and customer service.

"Brand Financial Training’s exam guides for R06 and AF5 are fantastic. Your contributors seem to get inside of the CII thinking zone and help to blot out a lot of the ‘irrelevant stuff’ that always crops up when one has been advising in the real world for many years! Comparing your guides with that of other well known support providers, I feel Brand Financial Training address the interpretation of some of the questions far better. I will definitely be recommending you as often as I can as your resources helped me get back into the enjoyment of study after a 13 year break and enabled me to reach APFS approx 8 months ahead of my target!"

"I've used your resources for 3 exams so far and have always passed first time.  I find these questions help to highlight those areas in which I am weak and which may need further study.  I also find that questions in the exam are phrased in a way that I would not normally use, and that reading mock questions helps me to be aware of and alert to these.  Your mock papers were invaluable in helping me to prepare for my exams."

I cannot praise your materials highly enough - both for AF5 and all other exams too and as someone who has purchased other analysis and resources I can say with full honesty that Brand materials are better than any others I have used within the market! I would not have got to where I am today with my studies without Brand!

By using your revision notes, [mock] papers and calc books, I've been able to pass all my R0 exams in around 5-6 months. Honestly cannot thank Brand enough. Notes are always impeccable and customer service has always been spot on. Such an amazing service at such a reasonable price – almost feels like cheating!
