Revision Courses ( Chartered Banker & RQF subjects only)

CHARTERED BANKER EXAMINATIONS

Aim of Revision Courses

Chartered Banker students are entitled to attend one free Revision Course for each subject they have enrolled for.

The aim of the Revision Course is to provide you with an opportunity to review and revise the subject material before sitting the examination. Wherever possible, CIOBS will attempt to acquire the services of the subject examiner, textbook author or subject verifier to facilitate the day - this adds even greater value to the day, providing a unique opportunity for learning.

The course will focus on the main topics and will consider previous examination questions and how they should be tackled. There may also be an opportunity for tutorial work if you find any particular topic a problem. To gain maximum benefit from the tutorial day you should have completed all required homework assignments and be familiar with the subject content.

Applying for the Revision Course

Applications to attend a Revision Course should be made via this website or may be advised to the CIOBS via email.All applications should be made to CIOBS at least 6 weeks in advance of the course date.

Dates of Revision Courses

Revision Course dates are published in the Scottish Banker and can be viewed / downloaded from the Downloads area. They may also be communicated by occasional Student Newsletters and by email to those who have elected to receive electronic updates about courses, examination deadline reminders etc.
