Monthly Support Sessions
The VFD Academy isn’t just about the application, it’s about building the skills and confidence to deliver more value as an advisor. That’s why we run regular live sessions (all recorded for later viewing), covering the technical, practical, and commercial aspects of working as a finance professional.
Here’s what’s available to you:
Technical Academy

- Learn about the latest reports and models.
- Get hands-on demonstrations of new tools.
- Ask questions directly to the product team.
