How to Use

How to Use

The key to exam success is not just reading and learning technical information parrot fashion. 

You don’t need to purchase the examining body version of the text book - you can opt to sit the exam stand-alone by selecting ‘assessment only’ on the CII website and then order a BTS Study Guide instead.

Think of your BTS study guide as the first step on your very own revision track. You’ll be able to check your progress throughout, using activities, practice questions and end of chapter tests.

As you read through each chapter you will gradually work through the AF4 syllabus and practice the necessary exam question answering techniques, using:

  • questions based on exam style case studies
  • exercises to practise and embed learning
  • technical reviews around the key elements of investment planning
  • diagrams and pictures to help ensure that the guide appeals to all learning styles
  • end of chapter summaries highlighting key learning points
  • a full specimen exam with explained answers

Event Information

Workshops are scheduled in the weeks leading up to each AF4 exam sitting to enable you to focus your preparation on what the examiner is looking for. 

What is the BTS AF4 workshop like? The AF4 workshop allows you to benefit from a group environment as we go through some of the key elements of investment planning. You’ll see worked examples and can ask questions to consolidate your studies. You will be amazed at what you learn by being part of the workshop group and ‘having a go’ at the questions. Technical areas that may come up will be covered and revised, and group discussions around possible questions and answers will help a lot. AF4 workshop dates are available for each sitting of the exam. If you can’t see a date that works for you, get in touch to ask about more options.

How to Use

Attending a remote workshop is ideal preparation in the lead up to your AF4 exam sitting.

What makes the AF4 workshop so useful?

A workshop is a live online event where you can benefit not just from the BTS trainer but also from working alongside others studying for the same exam. Discussions within the group can help to reassure you and improve your understanding of key exam areas. You’ll get out of your day as much as you put in (and more!).

After the workshop you will have 120-days access to a set of digital materials including specimen questions and answer feedback. Plus, a selection of technical crib sheets to organise your learning.

You’ll also be able to continue your conversations with your fellow AF4 candidates in our student-led forums. Login to your BTS account and head over to the Careers Zone to access our forums.

Delivery | Access

Delivered on Zoom. Places are limited.

Each day will commence at 09:30 sharp and finish by 16:30, with breaks timetabled for lunch etc throughout the day.
