How long should I study for?

To complete the Foundation level, around 20 hours should be committed to the learning.  Practitioner level requires approximately 40 hours of self-study.  This study will be a mixture of computer-based training using the CD, reference to the MSP Manual and other documentation, and completion of the Practical Tasks.  Depending on other commitments, you will require anything from 4 weeks to 12 months to complete this learning.

Purchasing this product provides you with a license to use MSP Passport for a period of 12 months from the date of purchase.  During this period the product is supported to ensure that the content is consistent with the APM Group syllabus.  The e-Learning, Foundation and Practitioner Exams are valid for 12 months from the date of the initial purchase.

It is advisable to identify a date for completion of the self study to help focus on completion.  Revision events and Exam dates are available by clicking the "Exam Dates" tab above. The timetable for these events can be viewed on the same page. In any case, you will need to confirm your exam date with SPOCE a minimum of 2 weeks prior to the chosen date.  Failure to attend your confirmed exam event may result in transfer charges being applied (see Terms & Conditions).
