Advice & Tips

If you are enrolling on a training course, it stands to reason that you want to get the most out of your learning experience and to pass the final exam. To ensure that you gain maximum benefit from the course, prepare before attending so that you know a little about the course content, the length of the course and what you expect to achieve.

Find out where the course is going to be held, so that you can prepare your journey to the venue, possibly using public transport. Make sure you have the correct starting time so you aren’t late, and check what equipment you will need to take along, if any, like a tablet or pen.

Read the course information beforehand so that you know what to expect. If there are some areas of the course that you aren’t familiar with, you may want to brush up on your knowledge in advance. Knowing what topics are covered during the training will allow you to prepare questions for the trainer.

Consider why you are taking the course and what outcome you would like. For instance, if you would like to become a financial adviser, you would take the CeMAP training. Courses will contain all the relevant material for you to study so that you can pass the final exam. A reputable training provider will help you to achieve the standard required so that you do qualify.

As you or your employer will be investing in the training course, thorough preparation will maximise the chances of you passing and becoming qualified.
