Study methods

For all of the Chartered Institute of Purchasing & Supply (CIPS) qualifications you can select from the following two study method options:

Complete Learning Package where you will study all the units of the qualification and receive all the study material and support needed to complete the qualification.  During the workshops you are taught alongside other students enabling a more interactive approach to your learning.

We have found that students benefit greatly from attending these workshops which allow the opportunity to learn face to face, discuss and debate topics and experiences with the tutor and other participants. You will also cover the syllabus topics preparing you for the formal assessment.

Tailored Learning Package is ideal if you have begun your studies elsewhere and just need to complete a few remaining modules or would prefer to study and pay for your modules in separate stages.   All you need to decide is which of the modules you would like to study.
 

Whichever study option you choose you will receive the following study material and support:

• all study material
• online resources including additional reading, online tests and exam practice, workshop content, up to date notification
• a tutor-led three-day workshop for each unit
• student support adviser
• tutor support
• tutor feedback on assessments
• Pass Guarantee
• Two years support
