Training built from 16 years of frontline HE experience

Every course in this catalogue has been developed from direct operational experience — not from a textbook. Peter Yetton has held senior roles across Governance, Registry, Student Advisory Services, Compliance, Partnerships, and International Directorate. That breadth means our training reflects how compliance actually works across an institution, not how it looks on paper.

All courses can be delivered as standalone sessions or combined into a structured development programme. In-person delivery is available across the UK. Online delivery is available globally. Bespoke programmes are designed around your institution's specific context, risk profile, and team.

All courses include

  • Delivery by Peter Yetton or a named specialist
  • Real case studies drawn from HE practice
  • Practical exercises and scenario work
  • Post-session Q&A and follow-up support
  • Tailoring to your institution's context on request
  • Certificate of completion for all participants

Compliance Fundamentals

Core knowledge for anyone working in or alongside international student compliance — from front-line staff to senior leaders.

Risk Management & Audit Readiness

Courses designed to help institutions identify, manage, and evidence their compliance position — before UKVI does it for them.

Administrative Reviews & Visa Refusals

Specialist training on challenging UKVI decisions — one of the most technically demanding areas of immigration compliance.

Agent Management & Overseas Partnerships

Courses for agents working with UK-licensed sponsors — covering compliance obligations, AQF audits, and how to build a culture of quality within your agency.

Student Preparation

A structured series of courses equipping agents and counsellors with everything needed to prepare students from first meeting through to visa interview — covering documentation, financial evidence, statements of purpose, and AI and face-to-face interview readiness.

Government Decisions That Affect Your Business

Essential courses on the government policies, geopolitical forces, and UKVI decisions that directly shape the international student recruitment landscape — and what agents need to know to protect their business.

Leadership & Strategic Development

Programmes for senior leaders and those responsible for shaping compliance culture and strategy at an institutional level.

Need something bespoke?

Every institution is different. If your training needs don't map neatly onto the courses listed here — or if you want to combine elements from several courses into a structured programme — we can design something specifically for your team, your context, and your risk profile.

We have delivered bespoke training programmes for individual institutions, cross-institutional groups, agent networks, and sector bodies. All programmes are designed in close collaboration with the commissioning institution and reviewed against your current compliance position before delivery.
