Training provider Compliance and Training Solutions (CATS) is to launch its first conference for Paraplanners.

The company has put together a collection of some of the UK’s leading financial professionals and trainers for the online event which will take place on 26 June.

CATS has been a compliance services provider for nearly 20 years and supports Financial Planners and Paraplanners.

It says the inaugural conference will be dedicated “solely” to Paraplanners.

The online event will start at 9.30 am and will provide structured Continuing Professional Development (CPD), offering attendees six hours of content.

There will be a series of interactive sessions led by experienced speakers.

Among the speakers and sessions lined up are:
