The Need for CeMAP
The Financial Services Authority regulated the Mortgage Market in October 2004. This meant that many mortgage advisors who were giving advice prior to October 2004 were no longer qualified to do so. The number of people that are currently qualified to give advice is a quarter of the actual demand.

Why Study for CeMAP
Our current demand from mortgage arrangement organisations is over 1000 mortgage advisors in the City of London and over 5000 nationwide. The industry is suffering as the demand is not being met.

The course is structured as 3 modules. These are:
Module 1: UK Financial Regulation (made up of 2 units).
Module 2: Mortgages (made up of 4 units).
