  • "I'm now Chartered... I have sat six exams in a year - all supported by Brand and passed them all. Thank you!"
    Scott MiddletonScott MiddletonJ M Taylor, Aberdeen
  • "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!"
    Russell HammondRussell HammondSenior Partner, London
  • The J02 Mock papers were amazing thank you. I ordered them yesterday for the final part of my revision, went through them all and passed the exam today. Hugely grateful!
    Rebecca Maxwell-HyslopRebecca Maxwell-HyslopPrincipal Financial Planning
  • I just wanted to say a big thank you for the R03 calculations workbook and mock paper purchased earlier this year which have been invaluable as part of my study. I passed the R03 this morning and have used your material to practice and practice again. Without these, I don't think I would have passed.
    Andreas NicolaouAndreas NicolaouOperational Tax Manager
  • I would highly recommend the material from Brand Financial Training for anyone sitting exams with the CII and working towards Chartered status . The material helped me pass J10 and AF4 first time with very little time to study. Excellent value for money! Thank you Brand Financial Training
    Sian ThomasSian ThomasFinancial Adviser, Hargreaves Lansdown Advisory Services, Bristol
  • "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."
    Christopher HargreavesChristopher HargreavesInvestment Adviser, Southport
  • "Brand Financial Training's great material was easy to use and really helped me get through some areas to get the Diploma. I'll use them next time for future exams."
    Giovanni ManigliaGiovanni ManigliaWealth Management Adviser, Lloyds TSB, Bristol
  • "Brand's solution papers were massively helpful in my preparation for the R06 exam. The expected questions came up on the exam and I was well prepared to give answers that covered all the aspects that I needed to in order to get a good mark. Gained a very good pass so am very grateful to Brand for their support."
    Matt HignettMatt HignettIFA
  • "The R06 case study analysis was fantastic!  There was nothing in the exam that wasn't covered.  Brand was recommended to me by a colleague who said "you don't need anything else" and they were correct. I would happily recommend your services."
    Edward BarstowEdward BarstowWealth Account Manager, Aviva, Sheffield
  • “Your R06 case study analysis was great & definitely helped significantly – it was good to know that you are revising the right areas  & hi-lighted some areas which I hadn’t anticipated -  it covered the vast majority  of the questions . Personally, I found the questions on the first case study more challenging than the second. Questions seemed more specific – needing deep knowledge of details rather than an overview, such as on pensions & divorce.  I have used your resources on RO1, RO2,RO3, RO4,RO5 & RO6 & passed them all first time so would recommend them to anybody taking these exams.”
