How to study CIMA by Distance Learning

Studying by Distance learning means that you do not have to attend classes. The only attendance required will be to sit the exams and even these can usually be arranged near to where you are living. We acknowledge that distance learning requires a lot of self discipline, but we will do everything we can to help you succeed, and to make CIMA an enjoyable and stimulating experience. You will be in control of the schedule for when and where you study. You can work as long and as hard as you need to and take breaks to accommodate holidays, family, personal and professional work commitments.

Qualifying through CIMA is a straight forward and highly flexible process. The study material will be sent to you and you will be able to learn and revise at your own pace from your home or office. You have the opportunity to send written assignments to experienced tutors for their comments to check your understanding of the study material and you can also schedule your exams to suit your circumstances.
