If your goal is to start an exciting and potentially lucrative career as a mortgage adviser, then the Certificate in Mortgage Advice and Practice (CeMAP®) qualification is your ticket to success. The CeMAP® is a QCF level 3 qualification specific to the UK and meets standards set by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) for those aiming for a ‘licence to practice’.

Employers from across the sector have assisted in the development of CeMAP®, meaning that the content aligns with real-world requirements that employers are looking for.

The CeMAP® qualification is made up of seven compulsory units which are assessed in three modules:
