Frequently Asked Questions

Everything training centres ask us — awarding bodies, learners, GDPR, trials, permissions and billing. Search below or skim.

Last updated 9 September 2026

  • We've got eight years of records in spreadsheets.

    CSV import is supported for learners, qualifications, certifications and invoices. Your onboarding includes a 30-minute call where we map your actual exports — including the messy ones with merged cells and a header row three rows down. You don't have to tidy them up first.

  • Our qualification isn't a standard one.

    29 common UK qualifications ship as seeds and 15+ awarding bodies are pre-loaded, but you can add bespoke qualifications under any awarding body — including your own internal awarding body for in-house programmes that nobody else accredits.

  • Will assessors see learners they shouldn't?

    No. An assessor sees only the learners they're assigned to. Six roles ship out of the box — Admin, Programme Manager, Admissions Officer, Assessor, Finance and Viewer — each with 40+ granular permissions you can edit, or you can build custom roles from scratch.

  • What happens to our data if we leave?

    You get a full export on cancellation and a 30-day grace window, then permanent deletion on request as GDPR requires. No contract, no notice period — cancel from billing settings and the account runs to the end of the cycle you've paid for.

  • How long until we're actually running on it?

    A guided setup wizard, a sample-data workspace to learn on before you touch live records, then your CSV mapping call. Most centres are running their real cohorts within a week.

  • Which UK awarding bodies are pre-loaded?

    Pearson, NCFE, ProQual, City & Guilds, OCR, AQA, Highfield, Qualsafe, Innovate, OCN London, Gateway Qualifications, ABE, AAT, IOSH, NEBOSH, RoSPA — among others. 15+ at last count. You can add your own awarding bodies and qualifications at any time.

  • Can I add a qualification that's not in your catalog?

    Yes. The catalog seeds 29 common UK qualifications (NVQ Levels 2/3/5/6/7, CPD short courses, apprenticeships, renewable certs). You can add bespoke qualifications under any awarding body, including your own internal "Awarding Body" for in-house programmes.

  • How do certificate renewal reminders work?

    Every certificate with an expiry date appears on the Renewals dashboard. Send reminders manually (one-click email or "mark as sent") at whatever cadence you choose — 90, 60, 30 days, or whenever fits your awarding body's rules. Bulk-send to all expiring certs in a window.

  • Is learner data GDPR-compliant?

    Yes. Encryption at rest and in transit, daily backups, per-tenant isolation (your learners live in your own database boundary), role-based access (assessors only see their assigned learners), and a full audit log of every admin action. CSV exports available for any data subject request.

  • Can I import learners from my existing system?

    CSV import is supported for learners, qualifications, certifications, and invoices. If your file shape is unusual, we'll get on a call and help you map columns — it's included in onboarding.

  • Do assessors only see their own learners?

    Yes — the Assessor role uses row-scoped permission (view_learners_assigned). An assessor only sees learners where they're marked as the assigned assessor. Programme Managers and Admissions Officers see the full institute. Permissions are editable per role.

  • Is there a free trial?

    Yes — 14 days. Cancel anytime; export everything to CSV on the way out.

  • What's included in the free trial?

    Unlimited learners, the full enquiry-to-certification workflow, the awarding body catalogue, renewal reminders, invoicing, and core reporting. The free trial stays free for 14 days.

  • How is the pricing structured?

    Four tiers — Starter (upto 3 staff), Studio (up to 6 staff), Practice, Academy and Institute (Custom). See the live pricing on the Pricing page.

  • Can I cancel my subscription anytime?

    Yes — no contracts, no notice period. Cancel from your billing settings and your account stays active until the end of the current billing cycle.

  • What happens to my data if I cancel?

    Your workspace stays alive for next 14 days after cancellation — you can keep viewing and exporting everything. If you want to wipe completely, request a full account deletion from your billing settings or email support; we permanently delete within 30 days as required by GDPR.

  • Do you help with onboarding and data migration?

    Yes. Onboarding includes a guided setup wizard, a sample-data tour, and a 30-minute call with our team to map your existing data exports into LogMom's structure. We've migrated institutes from Excel, Google Sheets, and bespoke Access databases.

  • Can I customise letters and invoices with my own branding?

    Yes. Upload your logo, set your colour palette and address; offer letters, appointment letters, experience letters, and invoices are auto-branded.

  • What user roles can I assign?

    Out of the box: Admin, Programme Manager, Admissions Officer, Assessor, Finance, and Viewer. Each role has 40+ granular permissions that you can edit, or you can create custom roles from scratch. Row-scoped permissions (e.g. assessors only see assigned learners) are supported.

  • Can I generate invoices to learners or employers?

    Yes. Create invoices in GBP, any other currency, attach to a learner or company, track payments and partial payments, issue credit notes and refunds, and email PDFs with a public payment link. Recurring invoices for tuition instalments are supported.

  • Does LogMom work on mobile and tablets?

    Yes — the workspace is fully responsive. Admins typically use a laptop, assessors often use tablets in classrooms, and learners receive invoice / certificate links on their phones.

  • Which browsers are supported?

    Latest Chrome, Edge, Safari, and Firefox (within the last 2 major versions). Internet Explorer is not supported. For best performance we recommend Chrome or Edge.

  • Where is my data hosted and backed up?

    UK-based infrastructure, encrypted at rest (AES-256) and in transit (TLS 1.2+). Automatic daily backups retained for 30 days. Each tenant has an isolated database boundary — your learners are never co-mingled with another institute's data.

  • How do I get support if I need help?

    In-app Support page (raise a ticket directly from any screen) and email. Ticket replied within few hours to 1 business day. Onboarding includes a personal walkthrough.

Still not answered? We reply within one working day.
