Pass & Go courses are available for each paper of the CIMA Certificate Level. Courses and computer based assessments are held throughout the year, giving you greater flexibility of when to start the qualification and when to sit your exam.

Course outline:

  • Enrol on and attend your first Pass & Go Course
  • Complete the course, including your EN-gage online practice questions
  • Pass the corresponding computer based assessment (these are held at Kaplan training centres)
  • Progress to your next Certificate paper
  • Once you have successfully passed all the computer based assessments for the Certificate Level you will be awarded CIMA’s Certificate in Business Accounting

Important! When you have completed the CIMA Certificate in Business Accounting you can begin to study each of the Professional levels for the full CIMA qualification. Find out more about the modules and structure.

We have worked with the official CIMA publisher (Elsevier) to create study materials at the Certificate Level. Each Pass & Go Course includes:

  • CIMA-approved Study Texts - includes an assessment kit to prepare you for your computer based assessments
  • CIMA-approved Revision Cards - handy pocket-sized revision aids in an easy to recall visual format. Their small size means you can revise on the go - even on the way to your exam!
  • Study Notes - exam-focused study notes which you'll use in the classroom

At Kaplan we believe that extensive question practice is key to passing your computer based assessments; that’s why our Pass & Go courses include:

  • Fixed tests – practice questions by topic, then assess how you are performing by comparing to the rest of your class
  • Custom testing - create your own personalised tests to improve your weaker areas, as diagnosed in your fixed tests
  • Two computerised mock exams - attempt under exam conditions to prepare you for the real computer based assessments

Important! You will complete all the above through our interactive learning portal, Kaplan EN-gage, which also gives you free access to other online learning resources.

As well as our Part-time Classroom Courses, you can also choose from a range of different study options to fit in around your lifestyle:

Live Online - Study wherever you are with our virtual classroom
