Scott Boath, Product Director of the Financial Services Faculty at BPP and lead tutor in Edinburgh, commented; “We would like to congratulate all of our successful delegates at the latest SII Awards in Scotland. 42 out of the 50 award winners and top achievers for the SII’s professional level qualifications in Scotland studied with BPP which is outstanding and something we are extremely proud of. This is a tremendous achievement for our delegates and a testament to the hard work they have put in and hopefully the support and tuition they have received from BPP.

“It is particularly pleasing to see all three prize winners for the SII Diploma, Diploma in Investment Operations and the Diploma in Investment Compliance studying with us. The Advanced Certificate in Operational Risk is a new qualification and has proved popular in Scotland so we are delighted to have trained 6 out of the 9 top achievers in this category.”
