Paraplanners have begun gathering in Warwick today for the CISI Paraplanner Conference, with attendance over the two days estimated at around 150.
Various expert speakers will take delegates through key Paraplanning topics and ex-adviser Bob Fraser MBE, a former Lieutenant Colonel in the British Army is among the line up.
It will be the first time the event has run since the IFP-CISI merger was completed late last year. The Paraplanner Conference has been a regular fixture in the IFP calendar, having been started in 2011.
An afternoon session on report writing and data visualisation takes place today before an informal dinner sponsored by ETF Securities. Chesford Grange hotel in Warwickshire is the venue once again.
