For advisors

The wider International Office team is available to support you by providing training, taking part in your promotional activities, and providing access to marketing resources.

As a contracted and trusted Cardiff University educational advisor, you are expected to adhere to the National Code of Ethical Practice for UK Education Agents. The national code of ethical practice for UK education agents lies at the heart of the AQF. It sets out the standards and best practices that agents and counsellors representing UK education providers must follow. Student sponsors are required to manage agents to ensure compliance with the national code as part of their sponsor duties.

For more information about the AQF, please visit www.aqf.info. If you have any questions about the AQF and using the services of one of our partner agents, please contact your named contact. If you do not know who your named contact is, please get in touch with the Agents Team.

The British Council has created 'A student and parent guide to choosing an education agent’, which is a useful resource that you may wish to share with students.
