Read it, listen to it, or both

Not everyone learns best by reading. Sometimes listening is easier: on a walk, in the car, or at the end of a long day. So you choose how you learn.

Foundation course

  • Written
  • Audio

Every lesson comes as the full written lesson and as a spoken walkthrough, like a chapter of an audiobook, following real families through each rule.

Add-on courses

  • Video
  • Written
  • Audio

Video lessons as well, for the practical skills: running the appointment, drafting, and talking to clients.

Included with the Foundation course

You're not learning on your own

Most estate planners work for themselves, so having people to ask makes a real difference. The student forum is where you ask questions, share business ideas and swap what's working with others on the same path.

  • Ask questions about a lesson, a tricky case or a client situation
  • Share business ideas: pricing, getting clients, what is working for you
  • Get to know people training alongside you, wherever you are in the UK

Clear prices. Start free.

Nothing to pay until you've seen the teaching. Each step is a separate decision.

“Incredible training, really extensive with lots of attention to detail, filling you with essential knowledge. They also really focus on the business side of things, helping you create an Estate Planning organisation that is ready to face clients and start generating revenue.

Thanks Project Will you have been a great investment for my business and I would highly recommend you to anyone thinking about getting into Estate Planning.”

“I will recommend this company highly. I was a starter and required lot of support. Project Will had the patience to work with me at my pace and time. Even after completing the course and as a startup they continue to support me in every aspect of my business development.”
Renjith ReghuGoogle review
“It's not often that your expectations are far exceeded. It's so refreshing to work with true professionals who understand the business through years of their own experience and I can't thank Alex […] enough for their time, effort and advice to make certain that my business has the very best chance of success.”
Brian HayesGoogle review

About us
“I paid £1,500 for a 4-day course, joined every membership body going, and was left with a certificate and no clue how to find clients. So I built WILLO, the software you'll draft in, and the training I wish had existed.”
Alex Stansbury, founder of WILLO and Project Will

Questions people ask

What can I do for free?

The first two modules of the Foundation course are free: Welcome to Estate Planning, and Understanding Wills (what a will is, intestacy, what passes outside a will, family law and types of will). Set Up Your Business and WILLO with Ease are free too. No card needed.

How much is the Foundation course?

£299, or £199 if you buy it within 5 days of signing up. Your own deadline is shown in your account. After it, the price is £299.

Do I need any qualifications?

No formal qualification is needed to write wills in England and Wales: will writing is not a reserved legal activity. What matters is proper training and knowing where your legal boundaries are, which the course covers.

How do I practise before seeing real clients?

In the Foundation course you record role-plays of real appointments with our practice clients, and a trainer listens, scores you and tells you what to work on.

What does the Business Start-Up Package include?

Every add-on course, 4 months of WILLO, case support (we check your drafts before they go to the client), and cover on our insurance for 4 months for drafts checked through case support. It's £1,495 and is available after the Foundation course. Afterwards, WILLO is £150 a month, case support is £49 per case, and you'll need your own professional indemnity insurance.

Can I do this part-time?

Yes. The lessons are self-paced, written and in audio, and work on a phone, so you can study or listen in short bursts around other work.
