CIPS Programme Details
The NFCPS CIPS Graduate Diploma programme is modular based. It has been designed
to offer free-standing subject units for students seeking an intensive, practical
and fast-tracked programme of study. Subjects are studied one at a time at several
points throughout the year, allowing you to attain your qualification at your own pace.
Study as quickly or as slowly as you want - you are in charge of your own learning
programme.
The NFCPS syllabus units are assessed by examination. Examinations are held five times a year. It is the student’s responsibility to register for these examinations directly with CIPS.
We restrict numbers on our tuition courses in order to ensure individual attention and quality tuition in the best possible learning environment. There is a booking form that can be downloaded from our Downloads page on this site.
Additional Study:
CIPS recommends that each syllabus unit requires up to 50 hours of tutor-guided study (including revision time); however we recognise that this may vary from student to student. In addition to the modular workshops, we will provide you with guided self-study support and further reading materials.
Using our experience of the CIPS Examinations, you will develop and improve your revision techniques so that you will be able to demonstrate your full potential under examination.
Teaching Methods:
Our blended learning approach suits a wide variety of learning styles. Approximately half of your time is dedicated to intensive workshop tutorials, with the other half available for additional reading and self-study under tutor guidance.
Please contact us should you wish to discuss this further.
Entry requirements:
Our entry requirements are determined by the established CIPS policy, which requires CIPS membership and either of the following:
- Normal entry at Level 4 requires a minimum of two A-Level passes; or
- Experience entry route requires two years’ relevant work experience
We also operate an exemption scheme in conjunction with CIPS that takes into account previous qualifications
and/or experience. Please contact us to enquire for further details.
