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

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

Author: Charlotte Hemmingway March 30, 2026 Duration: 18:54

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.
