Past papers

As part of your learning experience, you have access to past examination papers and case studies. Your tutor will use these in class to guide you through the technique and requirements for answering the assessment questions. This will be particularly useful before you tackle Exams and when you are doing class revision.

To access past papers please log in to your MY CIM section and visit “Studying Resources”.

To support your guided learning, we have provided you with access to Senior Examiners’ Reports which are written for every unit after every assessment session. It is very important that you take responsibility for familiarising yourself with the comments made by the examiners for your subject. The same mistakes are made in every assessment session, so by reading through these reports, together with guidance from your tutor and practice in class, you should be in a good position to provide a relevant and information answer to the assessment questions.

Remember, as with all professional qualifications (and unlike academic qualifications), CIM qualifications are practical. The examiner is therefore looking at how you apply your knowledge to the real world and will not be looking at how much theory you know.

We wish you well with your assessments.
