The PMI Group has launched a new PMI Approved Centre to help pension professionals gain the skills and qualifications needed to operate in a rapidly evolving industry.
The new subsidiary, Factito, has been created to meet sector demand for digital learning materials and structured support, including PMI qualifications, and will sit alongside the organisation’s existing Approved Centres and Examination Partners.
Factito will provide a modern training offer that includes expert-led courses and flexible formats tailored to industry requirements.
It is designed to support pension professionals at all stages of their careers, offering a structured and scalable approach to learning as regulatory expectations and professional standards continue to rise.
Gareth Tancred, CEO of the PMI, said: “We are pleased to launch Factito as a PMI Approved Centre to help create a stronger, future-ready pensions workforce.
“By aligning with Ofqual regulations and delivering innovative, high-quality learning experiences, Factito is helping to shape the next generation of pension professionals and meet the expectations of government and regulators for higher standards of trusteeship.”
Factito will operate as a separate entity within the PMI Group in line with Ofqual requirements for Approved Centres, while remaining closely connected to PMI’s wider mission to promote excellence across the pensions sector.
