This area of the website has been created to give specialist property finance advisers and those looking to enter this area of support, access to learning and development across key areas of our industry, supporting and encouraging further understanding.

As one of the three partners instrumental in the creation of our industry’s first certification programme in support of educational standards, alongside the Bridging and Development Lenders Association (BDLA) and the London Institute of Banking and Finance (LIBF), you also have direct access to the Certified Practitioner in Specialist Property Finance (CPSP)

In support of the CPSP and further educational expansion, we are particularly pleased to shortly offer access to our exclusive FIBA Academy, (Coming soon) another first for our industry, offering access to even more education, support and CPD opportunity.

This area also offers educational material across a range of media, from videos through to short courses from our Lender partners too – so there will be something for everyone to ensure your knowledge remains current and therefore your clients receive the best advice possible.
