Introduction to the Consumer Duty

The FCA's Consumer Duty is a new standard which addresses the conduct of firms. This duty aims to achieve a step change in how customers are protected.

This set of rules ensures that regulated firms are fair to their customers for the entirety of their relationship with them and that they are not taken advantage of.

Our Introduction to the Consumer Duty Course introduces this FCA Principle, the expectations that it sets and how to apply it in your day-to-day work.

Common FAQs

Are the courses SCORM-compliant?

Yes. This means they can be delivered via the Skillcast Portal or any other SCORM-compliant Learning Management System.

What other tools are needed beyond training?

A comprehensive compliance solution often needs more than just training. Alongside e-learning, tools like declarations, surveys, and registers that track compliance tasks are usually essential. Skillcast provides full support to help you set up these additional tools.

Can users only view the courses assigned to them?

No. All users can view all the courses in your Portal. Additionally, some of these courses may be mandatory, requiring completion by the given deadline.
