APT (Awards in Pension Trusteeship) exams are two types of qualification for fiduciaries or prospective fiduciaries on the basis of the Pensions Regulatory Authority's curriculum.

These serve the purpose of formally recognising the TKU (knowledge and understanding) of a fiduciary in accordance with the provisions of the Pension Act 2004. This is our on-line resources covering important facets of the secretary's function on the Board of Curators. Twice a year, in June and November, we host a PMI Trust Group seminar to help trust officers concentrate on areas of concern and give them the information and instructions they need to make sure their organization's system works efficiently.

There are also a number of workshops and meetings addressed to the Board of Curators. This group' s objectives are to foster and foster the highest levels of professionalism among those who act as professionals in retirement trusts and to foster the roles of professionals in trusts. In 2012, after the automatic enrolment was introduced, this skill was developed to satisfy the needs of people who advise or implement the automatic enrolment requirement.

There was an outline of the employer's needs and responsibilities related to automatic registration and an appreciation of its operational and efficient use. According to the Pension Act 2008, the automatic registration requirement now applies to every UK employers and the registration/registration process is considered to be " normal practice ". After careful examination, the PMI has determined that it is appropriate to revoke the independent certificate of automatic enrollment in pensions, since automatic enrollment is accordingly documented by the PMI Advanced Diploma and the corresponding diplomas.

These qualifications are geared to the needs of seasoned (and qualified) pensioners who are in regular contact with members who choose an option from a retirement system. Since this guide is in the field of non-regulated counselling, the qualifications provide an outline of the difference between controlled and non-regulated counselling, the different kinds of retirement schemes and the elements to be taken into account when deciding on benefit.
