Simply Academy Reviews

I enjoyed the course and found Chris an engaging trainer. My only feedback relates to topic 1. I appreciate that the Adviser Skills course is designed to complement the qualification courses you run and would benefit people who are new to the industry. Therefore, this is just my personal opinion, but in hindsight I would have only booked topics 2 and 3. Topics 2 and 3 addressed the areas I was hoping to cover on the course and I have taken a lot of points away which I feel will help me as an adviser. If you offered a course focusing solely on soft skills in isolation, I would have happily spent more time on the questioning techniques and role play exercises. This isn't really offered in the industry and I feel would be helpful to both new advisers and as a refresher for experienced advisers.

The study text really helped me reduce my reading time. It was extremely helpful. Luke was extremely helpful with helping us to get a strong understanding of the relevant areas in a short period of time. His knowledge and experience was highlighted throughout the week. I finished the course amazed on how much information I had learnt in such a short period of time. I sat my exam today and I am now awaiting the results.

David Beever was fantastic. His financial Knowledge and the way he presents is outstanding. any questions to him was answered and we all understood the response.

I passed my exam the day after. Very happy 😊

Dave was great, So helpful and went above and beyond. Wouldn't have passed it without him.

Chris was really great at breaking complex units into more understandable blocks and always made me feel at ease with any questions asked. I hope to have him again for CeMap 2&3!

Chris was very good, he made it an enjoyable experience and easy to understand

The course was great and David is awesome, but there was too much information to cover for the time given. More activities are needed to process the information - this would help both comprehension and retention. I'd recommend some input from someone who specializes in teaching and learning in putting together a more comprehensive course. I would recommend an online course that has set reading / video watching or other activities online, along side relevant tasks, discussions and exercises. These could work alongside the live input sessions.

Very positive experience. I found Simply Academy very helpful from the start until the finish with support along the way. The course was broken down into manageable segments which made it easier to digest. I would defiantly recommend this company to my colleagues and will be thinking to use Simply academy again to further my education.
