CIMA Syllabus
The CIMA Qualification is made up of 4 levels, the Certificate level, the Operational and Management level, the Strategic level and the T4 Case Study. Papers may be attempted in any order within each level but the levels must be completed in order.
Students must attempt all 3 Strategic papers in one sitting at the first attempt.
