Welcome to the second of three Online Assemblies where we are partnering with Vitality to discuss protection.

Think of this as your Paraplanners Protection Toolkit, perfect for:

Anyone with limited protection experience

Anyone who wants to increase their understanding and want to introduce more protection into client plans

Anyone who thinks they know it all but wouldn't mind brushing up a little

What will you be adding to your toolkit in episode 2? This episode is all about the protection policy and review and will include:

Jargon busting - all the different types and options

How much is enough and how to compromise/prioritise

What does a good protection review look like?

What with it being a online assembly, there are plenty of ways for you to get stuck in:

Ask a question: If you tune in on the day, you can pop a question in the Q&A section or share your experiences in the chatroom

@ us on twitter: If you can’t make the sessions but still want to ask something, send it to @ParaAssembly on twitter or email us here and we’ll see what we can do.

Save your spot by clicking the button on the top right. It's free, the only thing you have to do is register an account.

On the day of the event just sign back in here. But, we'll also send a reminder email ten minutes before it starts.

On the tech side of things. Viewing the events on browsers such as Chrome or Firefox work best. Headphones are a good idea if you share an office, plus the ability to type so that you can ask questions via the chat feature.

Just sign-in and view a recording of the session whenever it suits you.

Yes! As many as you can throw at our panel. Plus, if you can't make the event,  book a spot and add a question beforehand, the panel will then answer it during the event.

Can I suggest a  topic or be on the panel?

Absolutely, the more the merrier. Drop us an email.

You bet your bottom dollar there are, and on lots of useful topics for paraplanners. Watch past and/or register for any upcoming events here.

There isn't an upcoming event listed, when will the next one be?

Sorry about that. We're just confirming the topics and putting together an A-Team panel for it. We do aim for every last Wednesday of the month, at lunchtime (1-2pm for most normal folk), so you can join in while eating your sandwich.

Sometimes we'll throw a curve ball and change the date. That's because we want to bring you AMAZING panel members, and they just can't make Wednesdays. It's as simple as that.

Actually, my question was on something else

Ooh, we like new questions. Just pop it in an email and send it on its merry way to here.

One last question, what do you do with my details when I sign up?

Crikey, another good question! We’ll use your details to keep you posted on our happenings. From time to time, this will include activities that our supporters are participating in that we think you’ll find interesting.  We share information at an aggregate level with our supporters every now and then.

Please see our Privacy Policy here for details of how we will process your personal information.
