On average, you'll be studying for between 15 and 25 hours for each paper, depending on the units you choose and your level of prior knowledge. You'll be required to grasp a variety of topics including UK regulations, trading and investment strategies and risk management. Our study packages are designed to suit your learning style and availability. We offer a range of classroom courses, depending on your prior knowledge, or a virtual learning course.
Whichever you choose, you will have to study independently in order to pass. All our CISI Certificates training includes access to our online portal as part of the package. The portal is your one-stop resource centre providing study tools and question banks, plus it contains our diagnostic performance analysis tools to help keep you on track and alert you to your areas of weakness. We'll let you know where you need to focus your attention, so you can maximise your study time concentrating on what matters.

*For intensive courses you should have a sound understanding of securities and/or derivatives and accounting or a post graduate qualification such as an MBA or a professional accounting qualification.
The one and two day course options cover the same material, however there is more explanation and a slower pace in the two day course and it finishes with a mock exam.
