A modern, video-first programme for advisers guiding students into UK higher education. Built with universities, audited for compliance, designed for the people on the front line of the conversation.
Whether you work in-house at a provider, at an agency, or independently — UniStart Academy gives you the certification, the tools, and the community that defines what good UK student advising looks like.
Six hours covering the UK HE system, Student Finance, eligibility, the adviser conversation, ethics, and safeguarding. Designed by people who've done the job, not academics writing about it.
Your certificate has a unique verification number that any employer can check. Recognised by partner providers across the UK and accepted toward annual CPD requirements.
Student Finance calculator, document verification helper, scenario library, and an AI tutor for the questions you don't want to ask out loud. The platform is your daily working environment, not just a course.
Live Q&A sessions with senior admissions tutors, peer mentoring, an annual summit, and a private channel for certified advisers. Stop figuring it out alone.
A managed certification programme for your recruitment partners and in-house advisers. We handle the training, the records, and the renewal. You get the visibility, the audit trail, and the confidence that everyone representing your brand knows what they're doing.
One contract covers all your advisers. Tiered by seat count, with clear pricing and no per-completion surprises.
Your logo, your colour, your provider-specific modules layered on top of the core curriculum. Looks like yours, runs on ours.
Real-time dashboard of who's certified, who's lapsed, and who's mid-renewal. CSV export, API access, and quarterly compliance report.
Foundation curriculum is free for individual advisers. Specialisms, annual updates, and verified certification are paid.
Whether you're starting your career as a student adviser or running a provider with hundreds of recruitment partners — there's a place to begin here.
