I found the Pre-Retirement Planning course to be very informative and addressed a lot of my queries and more over the two days.  The Presenters conveyed the content at an even pace and regularly took questions through the chat box available.

It was great to air the various issues in a safe environment and demystify the whole area of retirement.

I experienced optimism about Retirement while doing the Course, and now am looking forward to being able to retire, which I wasn’t before doing the Course.

The course was really excellent. The speakers and presentations were brilliant and kept all participants interested throughout the course. 

I thought the course was excellent and was particularly impressed by the quality of the wellness side of the course.

The pensions and taxation elements were very detailed but this information was explained in very simple language with examples where necessary.  While the on-line experience does not fully match the in-person experience, I was nicely surprised at the participation and interaction throughout the course by those attending.

Any questions asked by the participants were answered immediately and explained really well. I am delighted I took part in the course and would highly recommend it to others. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to partake.
