Pontification ensues - the only snag is that many of us keep fighting for an extension when we should be proactively advocating for this to be done sooner rather than later. If we keep acting on behalf of the lowest common denominator then that is all we will be. If you're relying on an extension, then you are part of the problem. You get to decide whether you want to be part of this or not. For the sake of the budding profession, don't be part of the problem.

The FASEA exam is part of the problem in why this industry is in rapid decline.

It should always have been introduced as a necessary part of on-line CPD for existing advisers.

I have no problem with new advisers having to sit an exam before they are able to practice..

We are loosing experienced and capable advisers everyday and yet there are no new entrants.

Clients do not care if we have passed an exam.

For the younger advisers out there, yes get the exam out of the way as there is no alternative.

But the older experienced advisers will continue to exit when the industry most needs them..
