Clear academic status
MAI STUDIES is an independent online learning provider. Its current awards are records of completed professional learning, not regulated qualifications, university degrees or exemptions from AAT, ACCA or ICAEW examinations.
05 / Sponsors & partners
Help build access to practical learning.
We invite educational institutes, technical organisations and employers to sponsor places or propose an original practical brief. No partnership is implied until it is formally agreed and documented.
Discuss a partnershipSponsor learner places
Fund access for a defined learner group, subject or programme without changing the academic record.
Propose a practical brief
Bring a current industry problem. We assess it against demand, originality, learner value and IP safeguards.

Help learners facing financial barriers complete the same work and receive the same completion record.
Are Mai Studies programmes accredited?+
No. Mai Studies completion records verify work completed on our platform. They are not regulated qualifications, university credit or professional-body exemptions.
What can I try without paying?+
The public practice test and seven-day mini course are free and need no card. Scholarships and open-access awards may waive fees for eligible learners.
Who writes the material?+
Material is written originally for Mai Studies or used under a documented licence. We do not reproduce another organisation's protected question bank, course material or branding.
How are practical projects assessed?+
Coding exercises give immediate checks. Larger stage work is submitted against a rubric, and passed work is sealed so it cannot be altered afterwards.
