Now is the time to study CeMAP®

We’ve been providing CeMAP® support and training since the exam was created in 1998 and have helped hundreds if not thousands of people to pass the exam.

Now may be the time you’ve chosen to start studying for the CeMAP® exams since the market is quiet but it will bounce back. It did in 1981 and 1991 and all slowdowns in the housing market always result in a massive rush a few years’ later. So get prepared now.

Our unique proposition to you is cost effective training support utilising the power of technology and the internet to guide you through. We’re not providing face to face workshops, rather a distance learning solution using many methods such as activities and MP3s to listen to, online tests and online discussion forums.

Cool eh?

Summary of Benefits

• All your study done online – no need to travel and attend classes
• The whole syllabus is covered in a month - that's 31 days of emails getting you completely up to speed with the exam.
• Very cost effective
• You don't need to worry about knowing which bit to study next or plan out schedules - you just work on each email as it arrives every day.
• Total guidance and direction given by the structure. 31 days laid out in military fashion allowing you to study a little every day. Overall you’ll study for between 50 to 60 hours over a month period so no cramming, nice and gentle.
• Regular online testing to ensure you’re on course to pass.
• Daily courses to tackle at home on your computer or laptop involving reading, activities, listening, web browsing and mini testing.
• Interactive exclusive forum where you can get questions answered from a trainer throughout your studies.
• All you need is access to a computer with internet access (broadband would be extremely useful) and a printer would help too. You could even do your email in Starbucks over a coffee one lunchtime and then listen to the MP3 file in the gym that evening or in the car on the way home. Maximise your down time.

The Home Study Structure

Each day you'll be sent an email which contains:

1. A little bit of reading on one specific part of the syllabus
2. An interactive exercise or activity designed to help you use the knowledge you've just learnt.
3. Some multiple choice questions on that particular subject
4. Usually a short MP3 file containing audio covering the subject that you can listen to on your iPod or MP3 Player plus teleseminar recordings as well
5. Online tests
6. Interactive Forum for access to a trainer

Hi Paul, Just thought I would congratulate you on a fantastic CeMAP® ecourse for CeMAP®s 1, 2 & 3. I am happy to say that with the aid of these courses I was able to attain a merit in my CeMAP® 3 exam this past week.
I feel I could not have done it without your course which was very well planned and very effective in learning and applying the syllabus.

Alternative Pick and Mix

Many people like the structure and discipline afforded by the daily email facility but some students like to dip into the training in timescales to suit themselves. This is how it can work as well.

We let you have the 31 daily links upfront. Each link takes you to a webpage which outlines about an hour to an hour and a half of work. So if you have a whole day to study, you could complete 4 or 5 of the links at once.

Some students have completed the whole course in a week and have passed their exam.

More Detail and Samples

ifs School of Finance Registration

You get your registration with the ifs School of Finance, pay them the fee and they send you their rather large textbook which is the definitive reading for the entire exam. You have to have this as it comes part and parcel with the exam registration.  You can access their website by clicking here

Once you receive this or get access to a PDF version on their website, you crack on and enrol on the eCourse. Because when you bought our eCourse, we sent you a special password and web address so you could enrol when you were ready.

The Daily Emails

As soon as you enrol, an email is received in your inbox that you determined. This email explains what’s going to happen and reassures you.

The next day, during the evening, you receive your first email or day 1 of the course. It will guide you to a special hidden webpage which contains all the stuff for day 1. Click here now for an example of what this looks like.

You’ll have noticed that we provide everything you need plus total guidance as to what you should be doing each day. It should last about an hour to an hour and a half, depending on how quick you are. You’ll have a bit of reading to do – both from the ifs School of Finance textbook and our Revision Guide. You’ll have some activities to do as well which get you involved and active. You can then download and listen to the MP3s both the studio ones and the live teleseminar recordings and finally you’ll have an opportunity of doing some multiple choice questions.

And the next day, the same thing happens and you continue like this until you finish the course.

Hi Paul, I have passed my CeMAP® 2 and owe my successful pass to the revision material, tips and disciplined, precise on-line training that I chose to enrol for. Thank you very much.

Online tests

Every 10 days you'll be sent an online test to do which covers the areas you've been studying over those previous 10 days. It's a 30 question test and is set at a CeMAP® level so it's really difficult - much like the real test.

You do the test online and then it's marked immediately and you know whether you've studies well. There's a second test in case you fall down on the first one.

It looks like this below:

CeMAP® Question Forum

As soon as you enrol, we'll invite you to our exclusive online forum where you and other Archer students can interact with a trainer online.  Ask questions, debate issues, clarify stuff. And the general public don't have access, only you.

CeMAP® Webinars

Webinars are the hot new way to deliver information, especially in this time of climate change awareness, corporate cost-cutting, emphasis on lifestyle and global access. Webinars are:

• Cost effective
• Interactive
• Full multimedia - slides, images, flipcharts, videos
• No cost other than the training fee
• Remove the need to travel
• Recordable so you can watch it later

These are web based training seminars which you attend using your computer or laptop. No special equipment or software is needed, just a decent web browser loaded with flash player and a computer set up with speakers.  Some work based computers have their sound cards disabled, so you need to be using a laptop or PC capable of sound.

Other than that there's no special software needed. You could even put your headphones on with your laptop at Starbucks and enjoy some training.

Flexibility

Some people like to go faster and some slower, so on day two we quote for you all the links so you can rush ahead or store some up for the weekend or when you have a weeks holiday or whenever. You can take control.

But if you don’t want to take control, just let the course emails continue to arrive and guide you through the whole study plan as we’ve worked that out for you.
The success with our eCourse is first class. Those people who work through every element, pass…and that’s a fact. But you do have to be careful. Skipping bits such as the reading and maybe just doing the questions, will spell a failure I’m afraid. Success comes from doing it all.

So your next step is to sign up now and begin your eCourse. Good luck.

"As a complete novice to the financial industry (my background is currently office based in the rail industry and has been just over 25 years) I must compliment you and your company on the relative ease at the knowledge I am gaining with the daily emails that I am receiving from you."
