    Kinda, it's the practice that's accredited, not the individual, and at least two people have to attend. Clare didn't take her accreditation with her when she moved to InTouch. However, I checked this with Clare and IPSE at the time, and the fast track option was for the new practice to send just the one accountant or manager to accredit the new practice.

    No idea if InTouch have taken this forward of course; in their case it probably doesn't matter too much.

      There was a huge rumpus between SJD and the guy who ran the glasgow office. From memory it was resolved in sjd's favour but the guy has since set up his own firm. I believe he is now running the scotland office of a firm run and staffed by ex-sjd guys. I can't remember the names. Forbes something maybe?
      Kjm Scotland they are called.

      I've had no problem with them since they separated from SJD.

      Their reasoning was they thought the SJD pricing was too high, but what the truth is I don't know.

      I stuck with them as it was their staff I'd been dealing with. Think they were basically a franchise trading under the sjd banner.

        KJM, that's right. Ken McTaggart? I thought I read that he was associated with Forbes Young. I must be mistaken.
