Trust and Credentials

Every Registration Explained, Every Claim Verifiable

There is no shortage of education agencies claiming to be trusted, certified, or accredited. Most of those claims are self-declared. They cost nothing to make and nothing to maintain.

Study Inspire's credentials are different. Each one was obtained through examination, institutional vetting, or regulatory application. Each one is maintained through ongoing compliance. Each one can be revoked. And each one can be verified by any student or parent in minutes — using the verification links provided on this page.

Responsible Verification

We put our credential numbers on this page — not as logos, but as searchable registration numbers — because we want you to verify them. An agency that lists its credentials without providing verification pathways is asking you to take its word for it. We are not.

Frameworks

Registration Guidelines

Understanding the credentials that govern international student recruitment.

What is QEAC?

Qualified Education Agent Counsellors. Administered by PIER Education & endorsed by the Australian Government. Requires counsellors to pass examinations demonstrating mastery of student visa rules, AQF structures, and ethical obligations.

What is ICEF IAS?

ICEF Agent Accreditation Scheme. The globally recognized standard for international recruitment agencies. Vets institutions and enforces a strict code of conduct prioritizing student welfare and transparent commissions.

What is British Council?

The UK Quality Framework registry. Validates that UK-bound counsellors accurately represent course entry rules, TB health requirements, and visa compliance settings.

Why Two British Council Registrations?

Study Inspire holds two registrations (#80280 and #100916) to ensure multiple counsellors across our South Asian office network are independently certified under the UK Quality Framework.

What is an ABN?

Australian Business Number. Issued by the Australian Taxation Office (ATO). Verifies that Study Inspire is a legally registered corporate entity in Australia, operating directly under Australian consumer protection jurisdiction.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Verify active credentials, complaint mechanisms, and certification scope.

Yes — and we encourage you to do so. QEAC registrations are searchable at qeac.com. ICEF IAS accreditation is searchable at icef.com. ABN is searchable at abn.business.gov.au. British Council verification requires direct contact with the British Council.

Complaints can be lodged directly with Study Inspire in the first instance. If not resolved, QEAC registration creates a formal complaint mechanism with the QEAC governing body. ICEF IAS accreditation creates a complaint mechanism with ICEF. ABN registration means Australian consumer law remedies are available.

Our overseas offices operate under Study Inspire's ICEF IAS accreditation (#5701), which covers international recruitment activity. Our QEAC and British Council registrations are held at the company level and cover counselling activity conducted by our team across our network.

No. QEAC certification covers education agent counselling under the Australian education system and student visa framework. It is distinct from registered migration agent (RMA) authorisation — our counsellors can assist with student visa application preparation and guidance, but for general migration advice we refer students to a registered migration agent where required.

QEAC certification requires maintaining currency with Australian education and visa regulation. ICEF IAS accreditation has ongoing compliance requirements. British Council registration is reviewed periodically. ABN registration is ongoing as long as the business operates.
