Important advice for Managerial level students

October 2008

For students at Managerial level, the assessment process offers complete flexibility.

You can sit between one and six papers at the same time; and sit the papers in any combination.

We recommend that you sit two papers per exam sitting and offer suggestions for recommended study routes although, of course, you are free to choose your own.

However, whether studying up, across, or up and across the CIMA learning pillars, we strongly advise that you sit P1 Management Accounting Performance Evaluation before moving on to P2 Management Accounting Decision Management. You can find out more about recommended study routes here.

You can contact us with your feedback and suggestions for Velocity at velocity@cimaglobal.com.
