The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) will expect you and your firm to not only have formal processes, which are fully documented for all your business activities, but also to demonstrate how you measure and carry out effective governance.
This would include a full business plan covering not just plans for the firm in the short and medium term, its financial goals and associated matters, but how it will meet its regulatory and governance responsibilities and how these will be addressed.

I have no issue with any individual who wishes to better themselves and take a path of formal study, but it should be relevant to their day to day activities and provide a direct benefit to them and you as the employer (after all, you may well be paying for it), rather than ticking any sort of box.

It probably would not be unusual to assume that young adults are more entrepreneurial or prefer to move from one job to another, but a recent survey of 1,200 millennials (adults aged 18 to 34) conducted by EY and EIG has shown that people in this age range are more risk averse than we might think.
