Platform group Nucleus has launched a new CPD learning zone, which it has made available to Financial Planners and paraplanners who support its propositions - Nucleus Wrap, James Hay, Third Financial, Curtis Banks and Talbot and Muir. 

It said the zone provides instant access to Chartered Insurance Institute (CII) certified learning and development material.

The company said the zone will allow users to refresh existing planning knowledge, and learn more on technical topics and upcoming regulatory change, whenever suits them. 

The learning zone offers a suite of on-demand webinars and live event recordings, presented by Nucleus’ in-house technical experts. The firm said CPD certificates are issued when modules are completed, providing the evidence to help users track their development progress.

Specialist content covered in the zone includes structured modules in areas such as ‘An adviser’s guide to taxation of trusts’ and ‘Adding value to clients through effective planning’ modules.

The firm also promised a new series of updates specifically focused on the lead-in to the 2025 Autumn Budget, along with an analysis of what Rachel Reeves presents and its implications for Financial Planning.

Andrew Tully, technical services director at Nucleus, said: “CPD is important to ensure advisers stay up to date in an ever-changing environment. As it's likely many regulatory changes are on the near horizon, our new learning zone makes it easier for advisers to get up to speed on key topics and feedback what they would like to learn more on, all while working towards their CPD goals.”

Stephen Wynne-Jones, Nucleus marketing director, said: “Our new learning zone provides a single platform to consolidate all the resources our technicians create, wrapped around helping advisers with their continuous professional development.” 

The learning zone can be accessed through Nucleus’ website via its Illuminate Tech subsection.
