Paradigm Protect, the directly authorised protection proposition part of Paradigm Mortgage Services, has launched a series of webinars for member firms to cover a range of advice topics.
Beginning this week, each webinar session will be 30 minutes long and each will be hosted by a different provider covering a specific topic.
Paradigm Protect suggested the webinars are being offered as an alternative to Paradigm’s CPD events which have been postponed due to Covid-19, and allow advisers to “boost their CPD hours from home”.
The firm revealed it will be putting on several sessions over the next two weeks, hosted by the likes of Royal London, iPipeline and AIG Life, with a number of other webinars to also be added to the line-up featuring providers that include Aegon, Canada Life and Unum.
“At Paradigm Protect we have been actively looking at how we can support intermediaries through this extremely challenging time,” Paradigm head of protection, Mike Allison, commented.
“Prior to the Covid-19 crisis, we had a wide range of protection-based events planned for our member firms to attend, and there was a great interest in these sessions from advisers. We know there is an appetite for help, support and information on a whole manner of protection-based topics, so while we can’t physically run our events as planned, we feel it’s important to offer member firms opportunities to continue meeting their CPD requirements from the comfort of their own home.
“We can’t think of a time when the need for protection has been so great, or so front and centre in the minds of so many people. These initial sessions, and the ones that follow, have been designed by us and our provider partners to help advisers tap into that client interest, and ensure they can provide the necessary cover to as wide a range of individuals as possible.”
