COURSE OVERVIEW

Your Path to the RegisteredRepresentative Designation

This bundle is designed for candidates working toward the Registered Representative (RR) designation. RRs are licensed to both trade and provide investment advice to retail clients, requiring both the CIRE and RSE exams.

You get immediate access to both courses. Work through them at your own pace.

  • CIRE establishes foundational knowledge of Canadian securities regulation, ethics, products, and industry structure.
  • RSE builds on CIRE by focusing on retail client-facing responsibilities including suitability, product knowledge, and disclosure requirements.

You get immediate access to both courses. Work through them at your own pace. CIRO requires the CIRE to be passed before writing the RSE, but your prep for both starts immediately. BCC's CIRE + RSE Bundle is aligned to the official CIRO syllabi and learning outcomes, so you focus on what can be tested.

Note: If you are pursuing an Investment Representative (IR) role where you execute trades without providing investment advice, only the CIRE may be required. Check with your sponsoring firm to confirm which exams apply to your registration path.

THE PROBLEM WITH EXAM PREP

The real cost of
getting it wrong

Most exam prep tells you how much you've studied. None of it tells you whether you'll pass. That uncertainty gap is the real problem. And when you find out the answer on exam day, the cost of being wrong is specific.

ReadyEngine™ exists to close that gap. Your ReadyRating™ tells you when the data says go. Not when you've finished the course. When you're ready to pass.

THE REAL COST OF “LET'S SEE HOW IT GOES”

$475

First attempt fee. Paid to CIRO before you sit, regardless of preparation level.

$300

Retake fee. Charged for each second and third attempt, plus lost time and delayed registration.

6 mo.

Cooling-off period after three failures within six months. An unregistered advisor who can't work.
