All firms that are authorised and regulated by the FSA have to ensure that their staff have the appropriate knowledge, skills and expertise to discharge their duties.

The BIBA approach to training allows firms to access the appropriate training solution.
We offer a variety of ways to train:

• London Progamme – With a variety of technical, business skills and compliance subjects available throughout the year, brokers have the opportunity to devise structured training plans for each of their staff. Click the link below for details of the Winter / Spring 2008 London programme, together with booking form and course outlines.



• Regional Programme – BIBA has decided to fully support the Chartered Insurance Institute’s launch and development of the Broker Academy. Up until now, there has been no co-ordinated approach across the broking sector to training. That will all change with the launch of the face-to-face element of the Broker Academy offering. It is the intention of the three partners, CII, BIBA and Axa to develop the market leading training solution and we are all committed to delivering just that. BIBA members around our regions have told us that they would like a greater say in their regional training programme. The Broker Academy planning process allows BIBA members the opportunity to have a direct input into the content, timing and location of regional training in their area.

• In-house Training - Customised Training provided at your premises or a location of your choice. Up to 14 members of staff can be trained on site for a reduced price. The trainer comes to you, you provide the room and the staff and BIBA supply the training materials. Its as easy as that!

• Open Training - As with ‘In-house Training’, courses are organised to run at your premises but are then opened up to local members to make up the numbers. This works well if you a small group of staff you need trained in one subject. We will offer you a discounted price on the basis other local members are interested in attending.

All BIBA courses now provide short course assessments on each of the training sessions. These assessments consist of approximately 10 – 15 simple multiple choice questions to show that the delegate has competently understood the main aims and objectives of the course.
