Case studies

  • Name: Sarah Stone
  • Role: Financial Adviser, Harbour Financial
  • Joined: July 2011

FAS has really provided the opportunity to get exposure to different IFAs through various networking events and group sessions, helping me to find my own identity and style.

The group and tutor support has been great, it's really relaxed so that you feel able to ask any questions to help you along the way, whilst I have really developed my skills since working in the role, FAS provided a really solid grounding. It was great to have everyone in the same position able to try ideas out together.
