Ms Miriam Adams, Interim Head of Pensions and Treasury presented an update on the training options available, following the results of the National Knowledge Assessments conducted by Hymans Robertson LLP in July 2020. She said the assessment covered the CIPFA Knowledge Skills Framework and Pensions Regulator’s (TPR) code of Practice 14.

Ms Adams referred Board Members to paragraph 3.6 of the report and said the training would be in bitesize format with online modules for members to complete in their own time. She said there was a cost for this, which was set out in the report.

The Board RESOLVED to:

1. AGREE to the Hymans Online Academy as a training option for both the Committee and Board; and
2. Noted the associated costs for licences per Committee and Board Member.
