Your tutor will provide you with learning materials that are tailored to the syllabus requirements.

These will provide opportunities to:

  • learn in a manner that offers transaction exposure from the outset
  • develop understanding for a "real life" case centred approach
  • integrate both principles and practice via use of text materials and transaction-model development
  • reinforce learning and review progress through self-evaluation and assessment

The learning materials are designed to be relevant to practitioners, and as such will also be a useful reference source in the workplace.
