What CeMAP Students Are Saying in 2025

And why it matters more than ever for brokerages and recruiters

The world of financial services is changing fast — and the people entering the industry are changing with it.

Gone are the days of one-size-fits-all training models, rigid classrooms, and five-day blitzes with no follow-up. Today’s learners want flexibility, clarity, and real support that goes beyond the textbook.

And in 2025, they’re speaking up about what works — and what really doesn’t.

Here’s what we’re hearing from CeMAP students right now — and what it means if you’re training or onboarding future mortgage advisers.

 “I’m dyslexic, and I needed a course that understood that.”

Accessibility is no longer optional. Did you know on average around 20% of students I work with are dyslexic or dyspraxic, and they’re telling me loud and clear:

 “I couldn’t have passed CeMAP without support that actually made sense to me.”

This is why all my study options include:

• Bite-sized video learning

• Visual-first teaching

• Recap tools, real-world examples, and unlimited access until they pass

  
  

If your business is still investing in training providers with dense PDFs and silent inboxes, your learners are falling behind before they’ve even started.

“Having direct WhatsApp access changed everything.”

Support isn’t just about scheduled webinars. It’s about being able to ask a question the moment you’re stuck — without jumping through hoops.

 “Charlotte answered my question at 8pm. I couldn’t believe it.”

When students feel seen and supported, they pass quicker, retain more, and feel more confident stepping into the industry.

If you want confident advisers? Start with training that actually talks back.

 “I failed with another provider. Then I found this… and passed.”

During my April Masterclass, 3 out of the ten students came to me after failing with other providers.

 “I was about to give up. Then I found you and passed within a month of booking.”

The difference? Structured support. Personalised study plans. A real human guiding the way.

If you’re onboarding learners who have tried and failed elsewhere, you don’t need to lower the bar — you just need a better training model.

 “It wasn’t just learning. It felt like a community.”

One of the most powerful pieces of feedback I get?

“Being in a cohort with others made me feel less alone. It made me want to pass — for them, too.”

Learning in isolation is hard. But when your students are part of a WhatsApp group, a live Zoom session, a community that celebrates their wins and picks them up after losses?

That’s when the magic happens.

Why This Matters to You

If you’re a brokerage, recruiter, or network, your training pipeline reflects your brand.

👀 New hires are paying attention to what you offer. 

📉 High failure rates = longer onboarding and lower confidence. 

📈 Strong training = stronger teams, better retention, and faster impact.

In 2025, the bar has shifted — and students are no longer settling for less.

How I can help.

I’m proud to support students through every step of their CeMAP journey and I’d love to chat to anyone who is currently searching for a way to help their team succeed. If this feels like you right now, drop me a message.

Because when students feel supported — they stay, succeed, and soar.
