Cavendish joins with uni to launch SMSF course
Cavendish Superannuation has launched a self-managed super fund (SMSF) specialist course in partnership with the University of Adelaide.
The three-day course has been designed to adapt to frequent legislative changes and is the most up-to-date and practical SMSF accreditation course available, Cavendish claimed.
The course will be facilitated by Cavendish’s David Busoli and Tim Miller, who have designed and implemented SMSF strategies with advisers and trustees.
The Self-managed Super Fund Professionals’ Association of Australia (SPAA) has allocated 63 continuing professional development points to the course. Participants who successfully complete the online examination should satisfy the Australian Securities and Investments Commission’s (ASIC’s) RG146 compliance in the area of SMSFs and be well prepared to undertake the SPAA entrance exam, Cavendish stated.
The course will be available in Sydney, Adelaide, Brisbane, Melbourne and Perth.

The impact of identity theft and its threat to superannuation savings were highlighted in a case that went before the Federal Court at the end of 2023.
A recent NSW Supreme Court decision is an important reminder that while super funds may be subject to restrictive superannuation and tax laws, in essence they are still a trust and subject to equitable and common law claims, says a legal expert.
New research from the University of Adelaide has found SMSFs outperformed APRA funds by more than 4 per cent in 2021–22.
The SMSF Association has made a number of policy recommendations for the superannuation sector in its pre-budget submission to the government.
