CIMA

To become a new student with CIMA, you need to first register on our website.
The annual subscription fee for 2009 is £87 and the registration fee is £58.
Please click on the below link to register as a new student. http://www2.cimaglobal.com/cps/rde/xchg/live/root.xsl/1267.htm

Once you've registered as a student, you can fax over your relevant educational documents so CIMA can assess whether or not you can qualify for any CIMA exemptions.
The fax number for this is 0870 787 9408/09.
Alternatively, please email your certificates and transcripts to student.admissions@cimaglobal.com.
Please click on the below link for the exemptions database. http://www2.cimaglobal.com/cps/rde/xchg/live/root.xsl/exemptionsearch.htm
If you do not qualify for any exemptions, you would need to study CIMA from the pre-requisite level which is also known as the Certificate in Business Accounting.
There are 5 computer based exams that can be taken throughout the year and each are 2 hours long.

Once you have completed these you can then move on towards studying for the CIMA professional examinations at the intermediate level. These consist of 6 examinations that are 3 hours each and are taken during May and November of each year. When you complete these you can move onto the 3 advanced level examinations at the strategic level. Once these have been completed the TOPCIMA case study can be taken as the final examination.
