Introduction

The overall standard of money advice is extremely high and the Money Advice Trust (MAT) is proud of its achievements in helping people to become top quality advisers. The need for quality advice is growing and will continue to grow for the foreseeable future.

MAT, founded in 1991, works in partnership with the UK’s leading money advice agencies (Birmingham Settlement, Citizens Advice Scotland (CAS), Federation of Information and Advice Centres (FIAC), Money Advice Association (MAA), Money Advice Scotland (MAS), National Association of Citizens Advice Bureaux (NACAB), Northern Ireland Association of Citizens Advice Bureaux (NIACAB)) to support and improve standards across the sector. MAT’s objectives are:

• to encourage a more widespread availability of money advice
• to improve its quality
• to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of its delivery

To help achieve its objectives, MAT set up the Money Advice Training Development Forum (MATDF) to bring together experts to plan and develop learning opportunities for the non-fee paying sector. This has resulted in MAT’s courses being designed to ensure that they are comprehensive, up-to-date, well explained and are of the highest standard.
