Your 8-Week Roadmap: The Fastest Pathway to Becoming a Mortgage Adviser

The mortgage industry is one of the UK’s most rewarding and secure career paths. But for many newcomers, the route to becoming a qualified adviser can seem confusing. At Just Learning, we make that journey simple. Our 8-week CeMAP 1 roadmap combines focused training with real-world support and a conditional guaranteed interview, giving you everything you need to launch your mortgage adviser career with confidence.
Phase 1: Get Qualified with CeMAP 1 (Weeks 1–8)
Before you can advise clients, you’ll need your CeMAP 1 qualification, the first unit of the Certificate in Mortgage Advice and Practice. This covers financial regulation, ethics, and the structure of the UK financial services sector.
The Just Learning 8-Week Breakdown
Weeks 1–2: Foundation & Regulation – Understand the FCA, ethical standards, and the UK financial system.
Weeks 3–7: Deep Dive – Explore compliance, key regulations, and mortgage market principles.
Week 8: Revision & Exam Prep – Mock exams and 1:1 tutor support to prepare you for your CeMAP 1 exam.
Why Our Remote CeMAP 1 Course Works
Our online CeMAP 1 course gives you flexibility without sacrificing structure. Study anywhere, anytime, with 24/7 access to your learning portal.
You’ll get:
- Industry-expert tutors delivering real-world knowledge.
- Structured lessons to keep you on track.
- Interactive mock tests to ensure exam readiness.
Phase 2: Your Conditional Guaranteed Interview
Most CeMAP courses stop once you pass the exam. Just Learning goes further. When you join our 8-week programme, you also receive a conditional guaranteed interview with our sister company, Just Mortgages, one of the UK’s leading mortgage brokerages.
What the Guaranteed Interview Means
Momentum: Move directly from learning to job interview.
Confidence: Interview with a company that already trusts your training.
Focus: Concentrate on your studies knowing your next step is secured.
Phase 3: Your First Year as a Mortgage Adviser
After passing your CeMAP 1 and interview, your new career begins. In your first year with Just Mortgages, you’ll receive further training and mentorship, including guidance on CeMAP 2 and 3, compliance procedures, and client relationship management.
