FCA Compliance E-Learning for Financial Services

Custom FCA compliance e-learning that is auditable, specific to your firm and kept current as the rules change. Not a generic compliance course.

FCA-regulated organisations have a regulatory duty to make sure their people are competent, and the FCA is increasingly clear that training must be demonstrably effective, not just completed. A generic off-the-shelf compliance course that every firm in the market uses does not demonstrate a culture of compliance. It demonstrates a box ticked.

Bespoke e-learning built around your firm's specific policies, products, and regulatory context does.

Capytech has delivered bespoke digital learning for professional services firms, financial institutions, consumer brands, and luxury retailers for over 13 years. Our clients include Deloitte, BAE Systems, Bupa, PepsiCo and Cartier.

Financial District Architecture
Operational Reality

The Training Challenges We Solve

01
FCA COMPLIANCE

FCA compliance that reflects your firm, not a template.

Conduct risk, SMCR, anti-money laundering, and product knowledge training must be specific to your firm's activities, client base, and regulatory permissions. Your bespoke module covers the law as it applies to your business, your transaction types, and your client profile.

02
REGULATORY PACE

Keeping pace with regulatory change.

FCA requirements evolve continuously. Policy Statement updates, Dear CEO letters, Consumer Duty obligations: every change potentially requires a training update. Our FastTrack service delivers regulatory updates as interactive modules within 4 to 5 working days.

03
COMPLIANCE CULTURE

Demonstrating a culture of compliance.

The FCA's supervisory focus has shifted from completion rates to outcomes. Bespoke training with scenario-based assessments and learner performance data provides far stronger evidence of a genuine compliance culture than a click-through course with a multiple-choice quiz.

04
ONBOARDING SCALE

Onboarding at scale in regulated environments.

Financial services firms onboarding large cohorts of new advisers, paraplanners, or client services staff need induction training that is consistent, compliant, and tracked from day one.

What We Build

FCA Compliance Training

04 / PRD

Product Knowledge & Adviser Competency

Bespoke product training for advisers, paraplanners, and client-facing staff, covering your specific product range, suitability requirements, and target market definitions.

05 / PRO

Professional Skills & Leadership

Client communication, negotiation, presentation skills, and management development, built for professional services environments where the quality of human interaction is as important as technical knowledge.

Consumer Duty

Consumer Duty training that changes decisions, not just completion rates

The FCA expects the training firms give staff to help them understand their obligations under the Duty and the individual conduct rules. Its reviews since 2024 have criticised training that is described in policies but not reflected in how people behave. We build role-based Consumer Duty training that gives your board real evidence.

01

Role-based, not one module for everyone

Separate paths for the board and senior managers, frontline and customer service, product and design, marketing, and complaints, risk and compliance, with vulnerability built into each.

02

Scenarios built on your customers

Learners make realistic decisions on your products, communications and customer journeys across the four outcomes: products and services, price and value, consumer understanding and consumer support.

03

Evidence for your board report

Completion, scores and scenario decisions by role and team, so your annual board report can show how training supports good outcomes, not just how many people finished it.

    Capytech Capybara Pushing Content
    Can your compliance modules be updated quickly when FCA requirements change? +

    Yes. Regulatory updates are turned around as fully interactive modules within 4 to 5 working days. For text-based policy updates, existing subscription clients receive changes within 48 hours at no additional cost.

    How do you ensure technical accuracy for FCA compliance content? +

    We work with your compliance team at storyboard stage and again at first-build stage. The compliance team approves all regulatory content before publication. We are responsible for the learning design; you are responsible for regulatory accuracy.

    Can your modules help evidence a culture of compliance for FCA supervisory purposes? +

    Bespoke scenario-based training with learner performance data provides substantially stronger evidence of a genuine compliance culture than completion records alone. We build assessments that capture decision-making quality, not just knowledge recall.

    Do you build SMCR-specific training for individual role holders? +

    Yes. We develop bespoke SMCR training for Senior Managers, Certified Persons, and Conduct Rules staff, tailored to their specific role, prescribed responsibilities, and individual accountability requirements.

    Can you support Consumer Duty implementation training? +

    Yes. We build bespoke Consumer Duty training around your products and customers, covering the outcomes framework, fair value assessments, and the consumer understanding and support obligations.

    Do you work with smaller regulated firms, not just large institutions? +

    Yes. Our FastTrack subscription is particularly well suited to smaller FCA-regulated businesses, such as IFAs, wealth managers, insurance intermediaries, payments and e-money firms, and fintechs, who need professional compliance training without the overhead of an in-house L&D function.

    Do you provide audit trails for FCA compliance training? +

    Yes. Every module is published as SCORM or xAPI, so your LMS records who completed it, when, and their scores, and where your LMS supports it, their answers to scenario questions.

    On the Capytech LMS you can report by role, team or entity, issue certificates and export records for audits, your Consumer Duty board report or an FCA visit.

    Can training be tailored by role, entity or jurisdiction? +

    Yes. Because every module is bespoke, we can build versions for different roles, regulated entities and jurisdictions, for example separate content for your FCA permissions and for other regulators your group answers to. Modules can also be delivered in any language.

    Can you support T&C and CPD records for advisers? +

    Yes. On the Capytech LMS we set up role-based learning paths, issue certificates and keep a training record for each person, which supports your Training and Competence (T&C) and CPD evidence. If you already have an LMS, our SCORM modules report into it in the same way.

    How is learner data kept secure? +

    The Capytech LMS is hosted in the UK on AWS in the London region, with daily UK backups and all traffic encrypted over HTTPS. Capytech UK is Cyber Essentials certified, and we process learner data under UK GDPR with a data processing agreement for every client.
