Here’s some food for thought about some of the CII exams you may want to sit close together as you plan your route towards the Advanced Diploma in 2024.
We have a lot of big plans for 2024! We will be launching more exam materials, bigger mock exam question packs, new exam resources – there many exciting new ideas and things in the pipeline!
Our first priority for January 2024 is to increase the support we offer for R06, starting with more help with exam technique as we know that’s what most candidates find the hardest.

MP3 Audio Masterclasses
Available for AF1, AF4, R01, R02, R03, R04, R05, J02
Every individual has his/her own learning style. Learning by listening provides an alternative to reading and re-reading the study text, and can help with absorbing and understanding materials. Our MP3 audio masterclasses come in digestible chunks allowing you to listen at home, in the car, at the gym or wherever else you may be.
..."Your MP3 audio masterclasses were of great quality. I felt they reminded me of some things I had not thought about for some time and prompted some wider study.

Here’s a reminder that the CII update their study texts throughout the examinable year to either incorporate new legislations, correct errors, or clarify information. Many candidates aren’t aware of this, which can result in candidates studying out-of-date information.
To find out if you have the most up-to-date information, visit the CII website, navigate to your chosen exam and click on ‘learning solutions update’ in the ‘Unit updates’ section in the sidebar.
