CCCS Training
Advisor's Guide to IVA

Who is the course for?

With no sign of the consumer debt mountain becoming smaller, more and more people are taking out Individual Voluntary Arrangements (IVAs). As a result the Consumer Credit Counselling Service has developed this course to equip delegates who have an interest or a requirement to advise people about appropriate debt solutions.

The overall aim of the course is to enable delegates to identify when an Individual Voluntary Arrangement (IVA) is an appropriate solution and explain the impact of a voluntary arrangement on an individual and their family.
