FASEA approved
Existing Adviser pathway
UNE’s Bridging Course (Financial Planning) is specifically aimed at existing Financial Advisers* with previous specific qualifications that are eligible to complete it as part of the transition pathway leading up to 2024. This course has been approved by the Financial Adviser Standards.
Definition of Existing Advisers: ‘Existing advisers’ on the ASIC Financial Adviser Register prior to 1 January 2019 have a transition period until 2024 to meet the new education standards.
*The term “existing adviser” is set out in the Corporations Act under section 1546A. It is a person who is a relevant provider between 1 January 2016 and 1 January 2019 (except a person who has ceased to be a relevant provider). In layman’s terms, a relevant provider must be listed on the ASIC Financial Adviser Register. Existing financial advisers need to complete the FASEA exam by 2021, unlike new entrants that need to complete the exam prior to becoming licensed.
