FASEA approves additional graduate diploma subjects
FASEA has approved a number of historical graduate diploma subjects formerly offered by the Securities Institute.
In a statement, the authority said it had approved two elective subjects offered as part of the Securities Institute’s Graduate Diploma in Applied Finance and Investment (GDAFI) between 1991 and 2007.
The subjects were E114 Technical Analysis and E171 Specialised Techniques in Technical Analysis.
“Advisers who have completed the GDAFI with Investment Management stream major or GDAFI with three core units and three financial planning-related electives are only required to complete a FASEA Ethics for Professional Advisers bridging course to meet the education standard,” FASEA said.
The authority added that it was “committed to continuing to assess further applications received from higher education providers” when it came to the approval of historic courses, having approved 73 courses to date.
