Question 1

Is the course really free?

Accepted Answer

Yes, completely. No hidden fees, no credit card required. The free training covers wills, LPAs and trusts in full — the same content other UK providers charge £600–£1,000 for. We give it away because we make our money from the optional coached programme that comes after.

Question 2

Do I need any qualifications?

Accepted Answer

No formal qualifications needed. Will writing is unregulated in the UK. What matters is proper training — which we provide.

Question 3

How long does the course take?

Accepted Answer

Most people complete it in 2–4 weeks, studying a few hours per week. It's self-paced, so you can go faster or slower.

Question 4

What's the difference between the free course and the coached programme?

Accepted Answer

The free course teaches the legal knowledge — wills, LPAs and trusts. The coached programme is the optional next step that teaches the sales and business side: how to find clients, charge properly, and build a real estate planning business stage by stage. £199/month for four months, then £99/month for WILLO ongoing.

Question 5

Can I do this part-time?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Most of our students run it 3–4 hours a day, 3 days a week, around other commitments. You choose your own hours.

Question 6

What if I just want the free training and stop there?

Accepted Answer

Brilliant. Plenty of people do — they use what they learn to look after their own family's documents in WILLO. There's no pressure to progress to the coached programme.
