Visas
There are various types of visas one may apply for when travelling to the UK for a professional training programme. We recommend that individuals attending any of our courses apply for the Student Visitor visa.
Student Visitor Visa
The student Visitor visa allows overseas students and those attending professional training programmes such as RIPA International courses, to live, travel and study in the UK for up to six months.
Please ensure you submit all the relevant original documents that you want the Entry Clearance Officer to see when considering your application.
The UK Immigration Rules make it clear that it is your responsibility to satisfy the Entry Clearance Officer that you are genuinely seeking entry to the UK for the purpose and duration that you have stated. Submission of particular documents does not guarantee that your visa will be issued. It is your decision how you satisfy the Entry Clearance Officer that your intentions are as you state in your application.
