Regulatory Exam Training

Regulatory Examinations were introduced to evaluate the proficiency and practical application of knowledge of financial advisors regarding the regulatory framework of the financial services industry, which includes various legislation such as the FAIS Act, FICA, the General Code of Conduct and other legislation. 

RE5 is the Regulatory Examination for Representatives who provide financial services in the insurance and motor dealer industries. It assesses their competence and ensures they meet the FAIS fit and proper requirements for such a role.

The Regulatory Examination for Key Individuals (RE1) is the exam for persons who wish to be approved as a Key Individual in the financial services industry, and it also serves as a fit and proper requirement for this role.

The regulatory examinations are notorious for being tricky – we know there are tons of terms and concepts which
one must master to pass the exam. Let us help you to succeed!

The training is available through Virtual Instructor-led Training (VILT) and online training on our eLearning platform, covering the content published in Board Notice 194 of 2017, along with updates. During the workshop, we use proven study methods and techniques to help you understand and master the many terms and concepts required to pass the notoriously tricky Regulatory Examinations.
