12 Modules/Weeks?
You do not need to cover the modules over a
12-week period, they can be done on a more
compressed basis if necessary
We do suggest you plan on spending at least 4-
5 hours per module in reviewing and studying
the materials
The live on-line sessions will generally start
about 10 weeks before the opening of the exam
window, but they will be recorded for those who
are covering the material at a later date

They are designed to provide additional information on the materials and answer questions from students on their exam preparation
All sessions will be recorded for those who are unable to attend
