Duration and delivery

Duration: Self-paced
Delivery: Online / Instructor-led

Entry requirements

No formal prerequisite is assumed unless MFTC states one for a particular scheduled intake. Basic business numeracy and an interest in the subject will help learners participate effectively.

Assessment and timed tests

Case-based and knowledge questions may be used. Current filing rules are not tested from stale material; instructors should verify current CIPC sources before assessment publication. Timed assessments use an authoritative server-side timer, save learner answers during the attempt and submit automatically when time expires. Subjective responses can be routed for authorised human marking.

Certificate

A certificate is issued only when the learner meets the applicable course-completion requirements and achieves the required assessment standard. The default MFTC pass mark is 50%. Certificates include a unique verification number and can be revoked where legitimately required.

Pricing

Contact MFTC for current pricing and available delivery options.
