Professional Assist
Upcoming system updates: improved search platform for the FAQs page and video conferencing will be intergrated with Zoom.
Our Professional Assist is an online technical service provided in partnership with Information Exchange.
Professional Assist connects members to specialist advisers and provides access to an extensive information centre which aims to assist you in resolving specific regulatory issues. The responses you get to your issue can be easily adopted in your business, or passed onto clients, as all responses provided by Professional Assist are backed by advisers who hold Professional Indemnity insurance.
The service provides members with cost-effective professional written opinions by experts in their field.
