ICB Approved What is ICB Distance Learning?

ICB Distance Learning is a self study course, giving you the flexibility to study when, where and how you want. You will also have access to expert tutor support whenever you need that little bit of extra help:

  • High pass rates – consistently exceeding the ICB national average*
  • Flexible courses – fast track through the qualification in as little as six months or complete at a pace that suits you
  • Affordable – with prices starting from £483 and no travel or additional book expenses, ICB Distance Learning is a cost-effective way to study
  • Expert tutor support whenever you need it by phone or email through our dedicated Distance Learning Centre
  • ICB approved study materials – the only study materials in the market place to be approved by the Institute of Chartered Bookkeepers (ICB)

How Distance Learning works

Once you’re enrolled, one of our course advisors will contact you to agree a personalised study programme for you. You will then:

  • Receive your study pack in three working days
  • Work through the ICB-approved study material
  • Complete practice exams, which you can submit for marking and feedback

Don’t forget, as an ICB Distance Learning student, you can contact us for extra support by phone or email in and out of business hours (9am to 10pm: Monday to Thursday; 9am to 5pm: Friday and 10am to 1pm: Saturday)

What’s included?

Your ICB Distance Learning course includes everything you need to pass your exam:

  • Your registration fees with the ICB (£45)
  • Personal tutor support by email and telephone into the evening
  • ICB-approved study material, including our exam-focused Study Text and Revision Kit
  • Practice exams, including marking and feedback – a minimum of two per level
  • Study Guide to highlight important areas in the Study Text
