ASFA jumps to change superannuation education
The Association of Superannuation Funds of Australia (ASFA) has moved to be the first education provider to launch superannuation qualifications under the new financial services training package.
Following the revision of the rules surrounding financial services training by Innovation and Business Skills Australia (IBSA) last year, ASFA Learning has launched a new suite of learning products to comply with the changes.
ASFA chief executive Pauline Vamos said that the main changes were not to the content of courses but mostly to their delivery and structure.
"What they've done now is reorganised the courses in a much more structured way. The way students can move from one certificate to another is much more streamlined, with less repetition and duplication of content," she said.
Vamos said that while the deadline for courses to change was not until the end of July this year, ASFA wanted to be proactive in providing a benchmark for superannuation professionals.
