What the course covers

5 focused sections, each built on the Irish legal position rather than generic principles, then a randomised exam and your certificate.

Actual, potential and perceived conflicts
Personal account dealing and pre-clearance
Outside business interests and directorships
The conflicts register and how often it is really reviewed
Disclosure, mitigation and, when needed, declining the work

Conflicts damage trust before they damage clients

01

Perception counts

A perceived conflict harms confidence even where no client was disadvantaged. Disclosure is what protects both sides.

02

Personal dealing is watched

Personal account transactions and outside business interests are exactly where supervisors look for undisclosed conflicts.

03

The register must be live

A conflicts register reviewed once a year describes last year’s firm, not this one.

04

Sometimes you decline

Some conflicts cannot be managed. Recognising that early is cheaper than managing it badly.

How it is assessed

Every learner sits a randomised exam drawn from a larger question bank, so no two people see the same paper and sharing answers gets nobody anywhere.

  • Questions rotate per learner from the bank
  • Pass mark set for genuine competence
  • Learners can pause and resume at any point
  • Retakes available without starting the course again

What you can evidence

The certificate is the point. It is issued automatically on a pass and lands straight in your audit trail.

  • Learner name, completion date and exam score
  • Course outline and the exact version taken
  • CPD hours, ready for a professional CPD log
  • One-click audit export across your whole team

All staff. It is written for Irish regulated firms, to the Irish legal position.

CBI Consumer Protection Code; MiFID II conflicts requirements. The content is written to that legal position rather than to a generic international syllabus, and the certificate records the version taken.
