Just Finished reading the thread. That was freakin hilarious.
Just so everyone is is clear about a few things....
Most know I am rg146 compliant. I'm an LR (licensee representative) not an AR. So you won't find me on ASIC registry, merely the company that holds the AFSL.
Part of my many duties is as a professional educator. I travel nationallly and internationally delivering financial education under an RTO. (registered training organisation). This carries an additional compliance burden. I am TAE qualified in addition to my LR status. I must maintain my teaching qual as well as my cpd's. The education I deliver is both award (qualification outcome) and non award but aligned to aqtf guidelines and corresponds to ISO reporting standards.
I've lectured for the ASX, SDIA and Kaplan
Some of the stuff I teach has a relatively hefty price tag $15,000 for example but this results in a qualification and is covered by vet fee help.
I'd merely like to point out that anyone serious about financial education should probably try and do so within the existing educational framework. For anyone considering spending several thousand dollars on a course, some of the questions you should ask that have not yet been mentioned should include:
Is this course delivered under an RTO? If not,
Does it align to aqtf non award principles?
Will I receive a certificate of attendance?
Professional education use the nationally recognized training symbol.
If it has that symbol as a student you have rights under federal legislation.
Cheers
