A seismic shift is coming to the mortgage advice profession in the UK. The Certificate in Mortgage Advice and Practice (CeMAP) – the qualification that opens the door to a career as a mortgage advisor – is about to undergo its most significant transformation in years. Whether you're studying now, managing a team of advisors, or considering entering the industry, these changes will directly impact your professional journey.

From September 30, 2025, CeMAP will feature a completely redesigned structure. The regulatory foundation is moving from Level 3 to Level 4 with a new FSRE qualification replacing Module 1, reflecting higher standards and greater emphasis on ethics. Module 2 is being streamlined from four units to two, while Module 3 will incorporate protection advice – a change that acknowledges what successful brokers have always known: mortgages and protection go hand in hand. The critical date to remember is January 12, 2026 – the final day to complete exams under the current structure before the transition becomes mandatory.

This redesign isn't just bureaucratic reshuffling; it's a reflection of where our industry is heading. Under Consumer Duty, the regulatory bar has been raised, and clients expect more comprehensive advice that considers their overall financial wellbeing. For brokers committed to excellence, these changes represent an opportunity to distinguish yourself in a competitive market. Those currently mid-qualification face a choice: accelerate your studies to beat the deadline or prepare to embrace the new framework. Either way, understanding these changes now allows you to transform potential disruption into strategic advantage. Listen to explore exactly what's changing, when it takes effect, and how to position yourself for success in this new chapter of mortgage advice.
