The study schedule is split into a three-week learning programme. We would recommend that you allow yourself around a week after the programme finishes to consolidate your learning, practice taking some examinations and revise. This means that you should leave yourself around 4 weeks from starting the programme, to taking the exam.
As part of our structured study plan, rather than just giving you a book and expecting you to read it and learn, we will be providing an interactive and structured journey to help you through your studies.
We have broken the key learning outcomes down into various areas that will be rolled out over the 3 week study schedule for you to study as you go. The learning materials will include written summaries of the material covered in the form of a study guide that you can print off and read through. As well as this and alongside the specific learning material, you will find links to other useful documents that will help with your study.
Please note that whilst we recommend you study each module week to week, the full learning programme is released to you upon purchase. This allows you to learn at your own pace.
