What it costs
Two ways to buy
Both options give you the same ten online courses. The difference is whether you add a live Face-to-Face session on top.
£500 — any ten online courses
Ten courses of your choosing from your profession’s course list, worked through at your own pace with immediate access and a CPD certificate for each one. Bought individually at £49 to £99 a course, the same ten would cost considerably more.
£949 — ten online courses plus a Face-to-Face course
The same ten online courses, plus one of our four live Face-to-Face courses, chosen by you: Professional Boundaries; Probity & Ethics; Ethics & Professionalism; or the Reflection Workshop — Insight, Reflect, Remediate.

How it works
From letter to evidence, in four steps
-
Read what you have been sent
Identify which body is writing to you and at which stage. Your regulator page sets out who decides, and what each stage is for.
-
Choose your ten
Pick the courses that match the concerns actually named in the letter, rather than the ones that look most general.
-
Work through them at your own pace
Access is immediate. Each course issues a dated CPD certificate on completion, certified by The CPD Certification Service.
-
Write your own reflection
The certificates evidence that you acted and when. The reflection has to be yours, in your own words, and that is what carries weight.
Why ten
Why registrants take a set rather than a single course
Every regulator weighs the same three things, and a single course rarely evidences all of them.
Insight, reflection and remediation are separate
Insight is understanding what happened and its effect. Reflection is setting that down in your own words. Remediation is what you changed, evidenced. A panel that finds one without the others usually says so.
Letters name more than one concern
A single letter often raises probity, boundaries and record-keeping together. Ten courses lets you answer each strand rather than the loudest one.
Dates matter as much as content
Every certificate carries a date. Acting early, before a hearing date exists, is visible in a way that acting late is not — and several regulators can close a case at the written stage.
It is cheaper as a set
At £49 to £99 a course, ten bought individually cost meaningfully more than £500. The set exists so that cost is not the reason a strand goes unanswered.
Written for your regulator
Your profession’s courses are set out against the standards and the concerns that your regulator actually applies, and name the bodies that will read what you write. The ten you choose speak to the letter you received, not to remediation in general.
What a course cannot do
No course decides a case, and no provider can promise an outcome. Anyone who tells you otherwise is not worth buying from.

What registrants say
A few words from registrants we have worked with. Initials are used because these are live or recent regulatory matters.
I just wanted to inform you that following attending this course in July and facing my…. Hearing in December, I am now fully restored to the Register ….without any restrictions. I want to express my profound gratitude for your help and support from the course to make this possible.
I feel very confident about my own case now and look forward to reflecting on this course in great detail. I now feel more confident about insight and how to show complete insight to the tribunal panel.
…the course was excellent….thoroughly explained why probity is important and we had frank discussions about the mistakes that I had made and why they were dangerous to my patients. I am truly grateful for this course and it was worth every penny that it cost.
I feel more confident to prepare for my panel. I feel that I can provide a better reflections of my case
I am extremely grateful for the course as it has immensely enabled me in gaining improved understanding of insight and remediation towards completing my portfolio. I wish I had attended this prior to my initial Fitness Hearing as it would have made all the difference.
Best course I have ever done
Excellent. Please continue. Very interactive, gave chance to ask questions. Very well presented.
Excellent course and delivery. Would recommend
The course was very relevant to my case and I recommend it to anybody who has a dishonesty query.
Very helpful course. Appreciate the meaningful way you designed it. Many thanks for showing light into my way. Thank you
Key terms
What your regulator means by these words
Every UK regulator weighs the same three things, and uses them in a particular way. These are the terms the courses are built around.
- Fitness to practice
- Having the skills, knowledge, character and health to practise your profession safely and effectively. A regulator opens a fitness to practice investigation when a concern suggests that one of those may be in question. It is a question about current and future safety, not only about what happened.
- Insight
- Understanding what went wrong, why it happened, and the effect it had on patients, colleagues and public confidence in the profession. Insight is assessed at almost every stage, whatever the allegation, and it is the element most often described as lacking.
- Reflection
- Setting that understanding down honestly and in your own words, including what you would do differently and what you have already changed. Reflection is the written record of insight, which is why the two are so often confused.
- Remediation
- The concrete steps taken so that the same thing does not happen again — training, supervision, changes to how you work — together with evidence that they happened. Insight without remediation is an account; remediation without insight is a certificate.
These descriptions are our summary of how the terms are used in regulatory practice. They are not quotations from any regulator, and they are not legal advice. Your defence organisation or solicitor should advise on your own case.
