For providers
Join as an education adviser or agency
Vianorr Education is a managed marketplace — not an open directory. Every provider is reviewed before their profile goes live across eight stages. Placement in search results is based on fit with the student's stage and needs — not on what you pay. Advisers are listed at the individual counsellor level, not only by agency name.
What the platform provides
Public profile
Your provider type and fee model are displayed prominently — students know who you are before they contact you.
Stage-aware matching
Students at different stages see advisers relevant to where they are in the process. A student shortlisting sees different results than one with an offer.
Consultation booking
Students book directly through the platform. Calendar confirmation, intake form, and pre-consultation context are handled by Vianorr.
Service package listings
You define service offerings with deliverables, duration, price, and cancellation terms. Students can compare packages before booking.
Verified reviews
Post-consultation reviews are verified against booking records. Reviews cannot be purchased, submitted without a completed consultation, or removed for a fee.
Issue reporting
A structured process for raising and resolving disputes. Vianorr acts as a neutral intermediary.
Student application workspace
Student shortlists, application tasks, and plan tracking — your role as their adviser is connected to their workspace. (Later phase.)
Service scope at launch
The marketplace initially covers study planning and discovery, admissions strategy, application preparation, written-material coaching (with integrity controls), application representation (where institutionally permitted), and offer evaluation. Graduate admissions expands in a later release. K–12 is a later controlled expansion.
Full service taxonomy →What we do not offer
- ✕Paid placement — listing fees do not influence where you appear in search results
- ✕Guaranteed lead volume — we surface advisers based on student stage and needs, not commercial arrangements with providers
- ✕Immigration legal services listing — regulated immigration advice is outside our scope; a dual-qualified provider must maintain separate listings
- ✕Ghostwriting, guaranteed admissions, or any service in the permanently excluded category
- ✕Listings without individual counsellor profiles — agencies cannot hide all advice behind one corporate listing

Dual-qualified providers (RCIC + education adviser)
If you hold both an education advising role and a regulated immigration credential, you may list on Vianorr Education — but your education and immigration services must be maintained under entirely separate listings, intake forms, agreements, payments, and records. The two cannot be combined into one package. Your education profile will carry a notice that immigration services are not included, with a link to your separate immigration profile. Full policy →
