Thank you. I passed all my Cemap exams first time. Overall I received 4 Merits 1 Distinction and 2 passes. It is overwhelming at the time and you feel rubbish. Even if doing this training programme you still need to put in lots of study time. I wouldn’t have passed without this training you really need the interaction and explanations and reassurance of a tutor.

Having just passed CeMAP 2 & 3, I can honestly say that I couldn't have done it without the help of Peter. His knowledge was very good, and his delivery was excellent. I have to disagree with 'Anonymous A' on Nov 30 about time management, as some students themselves were late arriving, either at the start of the day, or from breaks during the day, so this did impact on the actual teaching time.

Trainer wasn’t that great. Pretty much just read directly from the book which could have been done alone at home too. Time wasn’t arranged/organised properly so felt that trainer was rushing to complete and couldn’t answer any questions students had. Maybe make course 7 days instead of 5 days if unable to cover study material. For being so expensive, would’ve expected a bit more Lovely venue, perfect location, polite receptionist with head scarf. Study Material is good. Thank you.

Really enjoyed the course with Luke. He knew his stuff and it paid off as I passed CeMAP 2 and 3 first time today!

Great course overall for distant learning. The support I received from my tutor throughout really helped me complete the course and achieve my pass result. I would highly recommend to anyone who wants to start working in the mortgage industry.

I want to thank all the team at Simply Academy for their guidance and support throughout my apprenticeship over the last 2 years. A special mention to my apprenticeship tutor Bill Beattie. He was helpful and supportive knowing how under pressure we have been in the financial services industry, he helped me outline a clear plan from A to B and has boosted my confidence massively over the 2 years! This course has given me the knowledge and confidence to carry out my current role and giving me the stepping stones to progress in my career and on my way to becoming a qualified financial advisor. if anyone who is looking to progress within the financial services industry I would highly recommend Simply Academy 100x over! Will definitely use them again when I come to take my extra qualifications. Thank you!
