Student support
At the IIA we understand that achieving a professional qualification is a rewarding experience. We also understand that it can sometimes be a challenge for those who have not studied for some time or for those with work and family commitments.
This is why we provide a wide range of support services to assist and guide you for the duration of your study, all delivered by a dedicated student support coordinator. They will be your first point of contact, providing you with the advice, guidance and support you need. If you have a query or concern, the student support coordinator is there to help you out so you always stay on track and make the most of your studies.
The Student information centre is designed to help you find all the information about the services and support we offer and we would recommend you regularly review the information available.
If you have any questions or need advice, please email our dedicated student support coordinator or telephone 020 7819 1907.
