# FQPS Academy > FQPS Academy is the UK's most affordable and inclusive SQE (Solicitors Qualifying Examination) preparation course provider. We help aspiring solicitors pass SQE1 and SQE2 through AI-powered study tools, expert mentorship, live courses, and comprehensive revision materials — at a fraction of the cost of traditional providers. FQPS Academy was founded to democratise access to the legal profession in England and Wales. The SQE replaced the LPC/GDL route in 2021 and is now the only pathway to becoming a qualified solicitor. FQPS offers structured, affordable preparation for both assessments, including mock exams, flashcards, audio books, daily quizzes, and live 1-to-1 sessions. The platform is used by law graduates, career changers, international lawyers seeking UK qualification, and employers funding staff SQE preparation. ## About FQPS - [About FQPS Academy](https://fqps.co.uk/about-us): Mission, values, and founding story -
