Learning and Development

Under IDD, everyone within the industry who sells, transacts or processes contracts in relation to the sale of insurance products will need to accrue a minimum number of CPD hours. Stu Rolls, director of e-Learning at RWA, outlines how the Aviva Development Zone can help you to both meet and record CPD activity requirements.

The Development Zone course design team has been hard at work adding new learning material to our ever-growing course catalogue.

Liam Goodall joined RWA on a two-month contract to assist in some important project work. As part of this process, we were keen to help Liam broaden his understanding of the world of work and provided him with access to My Development Zone.

All RWA staff are encouraged to use our flagship My Development Zone online learning system for on-demand learning as a tool to plan and evaluate performance and Liam was no exception. He has kindly agreed to tell us more about his experience so far.

Brand new courses have been added to the Development Zone course catalogue, including three fantastic cyber courses to ensure you understand the risks associated with cybercrime.

It is vital for organisations, of all kinds, to be aware of, and safeguard against, cyber risks. The Development Zone’s course of the month for May is ‘Introducing Cyber Risks’, which provides an accessible introduction to the threats businesses face in the digital age. Moreover, it provides helpful steps to ensure that you have appropriate measures in place to protect your data and systems.
