New for 2013

CPD CPD is a mandatory requirement not just for CIMA members but for members of other accountancy bodies as well.

CIMA professional development, the continuing professional development scheme for CIMA members, gives you the freedom to choose how you are going to develop. CIMA Mastercourses can form an effective part of this scheme. CIMA doesn’t prescribe numbers of hours or units, you do as much as you need to remain professionally competent and advance your career.

For more information on CIMA’s professional development programme visit: www.cimaglobal.com/cpd CPD hours are included for each course in this brochure for members of those professional bodies where CPD hours are required.

CIMA corporate services If a more flexible and cost-effective approach to meeting your organisation’s learning and development needs is required you can choose CIMA corporate services. Select from in-house training, our Corporate Discount Scheme, CIMA on demand – our online CPD solution, or combine all three. See pages 2-3 for more information.

Course cancellation Where circumstances force CIMA to cancel a course, the liability of CIMA shall be limited to a refund of any fees paid for that particular course.

CIMA is not liable for any consequential loss. For courses run by our business partners (ACCA, ICAS and Reed) we apply their booking terms and conditions; email mastercourses@cimaglobal.com for details.

On the day Joining instructions Joining instructions including directions are sent one to two weeks before the course date. If you do not receive these please phone: +44 (0)845 026 4722.

Certificate of attendance If you would like a certificate of attendance please email mastercourses@cimaglobal.com

Course papers These will be provided on the day of the course. They are intended to supplement presentations rather than to be self-sufficient. For this reason and because problems of copyright occasionally arise, arrangements are not usually made to produce more sets than are required at the time of the course.

Course quality When you attend a CIMA Mastercourse you will be given an assessment form on which to make your comments. The attention we pay to your assessment forms ensures the continuing quality and relevance of our course programmes.
