Narrative exams

Our narrative exams are available at certain times of the year and most are available via remote invigilation or at our test centres. Select an exam for full details of the next exam sittings and important dates. All examination times shown are UK, International exam times may vary but will be confirmed via email after booking.

If you wish to sit your narrative exam at a physical venue outside of the UK, this will incur a local invigilation fee which will be confirmed to you by our customer support team once the venue has been arranged. Remote exams for candidates outside the UK do not attract any additional local fees.

CBT exams

Our multiple-choice question (MCQ) CBT exams are available on demand via our global network of test centres and via remote invigilation. You can login and use our exam booking system to find all the available dates for your chosen exam.

We are withdrawing our our Financial Derivatives exam in the summer 2023 session, the Bond and Fixed Interest Markets and the Advanced Global Securities Operations exam in the winter 2023 session.
It is strongly recommended the final sitting is for resits only and not for first time candidates. If you have any questions, please contact our Customer Support Team.
