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.
Email tutor support all the time that you are studying
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:
A little bit of reading on one specific part of the
syllabus
An interactive exercise or activity designed to help you use
the knowledge you've just learnt.
Some multiple choice questions on that particular subject
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
Online tests
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.

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:
Tutor Support
As soon as you enrol,
you get access to a tutor via email who will answer any
CeMAP related query you have, so you're not alone.
This is a feature no one really
appreciates, until you need some help.
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.
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."
