Selecting the correct role when registering for the agent and counsellor training and engagement hub

To appear on the agent and counsellor publicly accessible database, you must select the correct role when registering on the hub.

There are three roles you can choose from:

1. Agent counsellor
2. School/College/Education provider counsellor
3. Other

An Agent counsellor is:

• an education specialist who places students on behalf of one or more education providers
• an education specialist who places students but with no ties to any education provider
• an other adviser, for example a travel agent, who may offer overseas education placement services as one of their activities

A School/College/Education provider counsellor is a counsellor that works in-house at an education provider. A school, college, HE provider or multiple education provider.

Other is for professionals that do not work with students.

It is important you choose the correct role so you are visible on the database to the right students searching for a certified agent or counsellor.
