The Chartered Wealth Manager qualification comprises three units: Financial Markets, Portfolio Construction Theory, and Applied Wealth Management, normally taken over 18 months, with sittings in June and December.

Scholarship candidates were asked to submit an essay analysing the advantages and disadvantages between using a robo-adviser and a human advisor, from the customer’s perspective.
