so to reach Level 5. The

communication with CICM

has been perfect; if I have

any questions or queries,

they are always answered

professionally & promptly.

to be very accessible, with

several options available

which allow students to

tailor their studying to fit

nicely around work and

personal commitments.

course and it has really

helped develop myself

personally, and I can bring

the knowledge I’ve learnt

into my day-to-day role.
