R01 Study Resources

Customer Reviews

”I really couldn’t have passed R01 and R02 without the help of Expert Pensions. The variety of the study materials they provide is excellent and really helped me stay engaged with the content. I find the videos extremely useful as they manage to explain lots of complex information in a way that is easy to understand. For me, it’s always more enjoyable to watch someone explaining something rather than reading it! Their forum gives you the opportunity to ask their experts any questions you have (e.g. you need an answer from the CII’s practice exam explained). The experts give quick and comprehensive replies it’s been great going through other students’ questions as sometimes they will have asked something you want to know too! I really couldn’t recommend Expert Pensions enough.”
