Delivery

Have the flexibility to deliver your In-House training in-person by one of our trainers at your premises, or virtually via Zoom, Teams or Webex.

One of our CISI expert trainers will guide participants through the syllabus in a structured, engaging and interactive manner.

Practice tests and mock exams
Our training sessions commence with a ‘kick-off’ test, testing the participants on their existing capabilities, and finish with a ‘progress’ test assessing their progress on the topics.

Participants are also provided with chapter-by-chapter practice questions and a mock exam that simulates the real CISI examination.

These tools provide valuable feedback and facilitate monitoring to track the participants’ performance throughout the study programme. They are vital in effectively preparing participants for success in their CISI exam.

Virtual Delivery

Our virtual training courses are designed to be every bit as engaging as our in-person courses. To achieve this, our trainers use market-leading technology and a range of training techniques to ensure high levels of interaction with participants. Courses include the use of:

  • Polling: multiple-choice questions, answered anonymously, allow the trainer to assess knowledge and understanding across the group.
  • Case studies: true to life case studies and scenarios are used to highlight the practical application of theoretical knowledge.
  • Messaging: participants can submit questions and comments, either to the whole group or privately to the trainer.

Additional Benefits:

  • Recording: public course participants have the option to access a recording of the course for one month after the course. In-House clients also have the option to record their training for an additional fee.

  • On-going Q&A: public course participants can access an ongoing Q&A facility allowing them to ask questions relating to the course.

 

In-Person Delivery

Our in-person training is delivered face to face at your offices, and includes:

  • ‘In-the-moment’ questions & discussions: questions through conversations allow the trainer to assess knowledge and understanding across the group.
