Registering for the SQE

To sit any SQE assessment, you must first complete the registration process. This involves creating and activating your account, verifying your identity, and completing several essential pre-booking tasks.

Completing registration is mandatory before you can book or sit any assessments. We recommend registering as early as possible to allow enough time to complete all required steps before a booking can be made. See the Assessment dates and booking windows page for the timeline of each assessment.

Apprentices

If you are taking the SQE as an apprentice, you will also need to register by creating an account and verifying your identity. Your employer or training provider will nominate Kaplan SQE as the End Point Assessment organisation on your behalf. You don’t need to notify us yourself, but you should inform your provider once you have registered.
