Student assessment is divided into two 2 hour examinations: a Theory paper and an Application paper, and a pass must be achieved in both examinations to gain the Certificate qualification.

Theory examination

Application examination

The objective of the Application examination is to test a student's ability to apply the theory of risk management to different organisations and situations.

Marking scheme

The pass mark for each examination is 50% and the grades below highlight a student's degree of success or failure in their examinations.
