I Was Wrong... Here's the Best Way to Pass CeMAP in 2026

At the start of this year, I made some big changes to how I offered CeMAP training. I pulled my best-selling 5 day fast track courses and went all in on the 6 week model, thinking it was the best solution for everyone. And while it did work brilliantly for a lot of you… it didn’t work for all of you. In this episode, I talk openly about that decision, what I’ve learned over the past few months, and why I’ve now brought the 5 day fast track back. We get into: 👉🏻 Why different people need different study options 👉🏻 Who fast track is actually best suited for 👉🏻 Why e-learning is still one of the most effective ways to pass 👉🏻 And how 1:1 coaching has become the go-to for people who want a completely personalised plan If you’re looking to get CeMAP qualified in 2026, this episode will help you figure out which route is right for you, based on your time, your lifestyle, and how you actually learn best. Because the truth is… there isn’t one “perfect” way to pass CeMAP. But there is a right way for you. And now, there are three clear ways I can help you get there: Self-paced e-learning 5 day fast track courses 1:1 coaching with full support Whatever stage you’re at, this will give you clarity on your next step. And if you’re ready to stop overthinking it and just get qualified, everything you need is here.

The New Breed of Mortgage Adviser?

This week on the podcast we're joined by Terry Blackburn, the man who built, scaled and sold one of the UK’s largest brokerages, before turning his focus to coaching and adviser community building. We're here having a very honest conversation about where the mortgage industry is heading. The “new breed” of mortgage adviser is not the same as it was ten years ago. We talk about: * What the modern adviser looks like * The shift from transactional advice to long-term client relationships * Why advisers who build audience and authority will win But we also get into something that doesn’t get spoken about enoughz the potential loneliness of advice roles. When you’re self-employed, remote, or building from scratch, it can feel isolating. No team around you. No one to bounce ideas off. No community to grow with. Terry shares how he’s built a space specifically for advisers who want to grow, connect and scale — and how you can access support, training and community without it costing you anything upfront. If you’re already qualified, studying CeMAP, or thinking about becoming a mortgage or protection adviser, this episode will open your eyes to what’s possible in this next era of advice.

Steps After CeMAP? Career Routes & Networks

This week’s episode is a special one. We had the absolute pleasure of sitting down with Sam Lappin, and it turned out to be totally unmissable for anyone who has yet to find their path after they finish CeMAP. In this episode, we dig into: * The different routes available after CeMAP * Employed vs self-employed pathways * The difference between DA & AR * The types of support new advisers really need * The questions people face when they’re nearing the end of their studies * And why your long-term thinking should start much earlier than most people realise It was genuinely a pleasure to record. Sam was brilliant, and we'd love to do it again soon. 🔎 Useful Links From The Episode If you’d like to explore the routes we discussed, here are the links mentioned: Sesame Network Limited Website https://www.sesame.co.uk/ Sesame Jobs Board Find both employed and self-employed opportunities, pre and post CAS: https://www.sesame.co.uk/Jobs-Board Thinking about joining Sesame? https://www.sesame.co.uk/Join Connect with Sam Lappin on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/samlappin/ 🎧 Special Shoutout – LBA Accountancy I've done this before, but I wanted to give a MASSIVE shoutout to Leila at LBA Accountancy, who specialises in supporting advisers and financial professionals.

CeMAP Myths That Are Slowing You Down

There’s a lot of noise around CeMAP — and a surprising amount of it is simply wrong. In this episode Maria and I break down the biggest lies people hear about CeMAP, the ones that stop capable people from starting at all or leave people questioning themselves when nothing is actually wrong. We cover: * The myth that CeMAP is only for people who are good at maths * Why you don’t need a finance background to pass * The belief that CeMAP takes years to complete * What failing a CeMAP exam really means (and what it doesn’t) * Why over-studying often causes more problems than it solves * The idea that CeMAP is suddenly harder than it used to be * And the quiet assumption that everyone else understands this better than you Most people who struggle with CeMAP aren’t struggling because they’re incapable, they just haven't found a study route that works for them. If you’re studying CeMAP, thinking about starting, or feeling unsure whether you’re “doing it right”, this episode will help you find some focus.

CeMAP Home Exams Explained, What to Expect and How to Stay Calm

Home exams can feel intimidating especially when the rules and expectations aren’t always explained clearly. In this episode, Maria the Money Muggle and I break down everything you need to know about sitting your CeMAP exams from home on the new format, so you can go in feeling prepared rather than panicked. We cover: • The new home exam layout and what’s changed * What to do before exam day to avoid unnecessary stress * Common things people get caught out by during home exams * The best time of day to sit your exam (and why it matters) * How to set up your space properly * And our most unhinged but surprisingly effective tip for managing exam anxiety This episode is all about helping you feel calm, in control, and confident because home exams aren’t harder, they’re just different. If you’ve got a CeMAP exam coming up and you’re feeling nervous about sitting it at home, this conversation will help you know exactly what to expect and how to handle it. And yes, the anxiety tip is... controversial, but if it works 🤷🏼‍♀️. If this episode helps, share it with someone else who’s got an exam booked — chances are they’re stressing too

The CeMAP 2 & 3 changes in 2026.

In this episode, I break down exactly what’s changed, who it affects, and (most importantly) what you actually need to study for each exam. We cover: * How CeMAP 2 can now be sat in two halves * Which topics are tested in each part * Why Topics 16–19 sit separately * How CeMAP 3 builds on CeMAP 2 * What’s changed with textbooks and digital materials * What to do if you can’t find your content clearly in the portal * The biggest mistakes learners are making in 2026 I also talk through the different ways you can approach your CeMAP studies, depending on how much structure and support you want: If you want the fastest, most supported route, my 6 Weeks to CeMAP courses take you from start to exam-ready in a fixed timeframe, without taking time off work. If you want flexibility my CeMAP e-learning platforms walk you through exactly what to study, in the right order, with clear exam focus. And if you’re starting with the textbook and want guidance before committing to anything, I also share how to access my free study resources to help you study smarter, not harder.

If this episode helps, share it with someone else who’s studying — chances are they’re just as confused as you were.
