    CII Exam Combinations to Consider

    November 14, 2023
    For those of you starting to plan your exam journey for 2024, you’ll be pleased to hear the CII have released the exam dates for all their written exams. We use the word ‘written’ in its modern sense as, post-COVID, all these exams, except AF4, are actually written online rather than with pen and paper. The CII refers to them as ‘written’ to distinguish them from their multiple-choice exams. The multiple-choice exams can be taken at any time throughout the year. Now we’ve cleared that up, in this article, we thought we’d give you some food for thought about some of the exams you may want to consider sitting close together as you plan your route towards the Advanced Diploma in 2024.
