About this course
Knowing the content for an exam, and showing the examiner that you know it are two different skills. That's what this course is all about.
I've created 40 essay questions – 10 for each Learning Outcome – to help you practise taking everything you've learned and turn it into a strong exam response.
For each question, you get to select how confident you feel about answering it. Then you can choose what to do with the questions. You might research the topic with your Study Guide, jot down a few notes, turn it into a revision card or write the whole essay under timed exam conditions.
When you're ready, you can reveal my example essay response and compare it with your own.
But I don't just give you an answer and move on. Every question has Tutor Notes where I'll explain other ways you could have approached the question, what content you could include, the best way to structure your answer and how the marks could be awarded under the marking scheme.
I also include a reference back to the official CIPS study guide for every question, so if you find a gap in your knowledge, you know exactly where to go back to.
Looking for help learning the syllabus?
This Practice Questions course is designed for students who are already familiar with the syllabus and now want to focus on exam technique – turning what you know into a clear, well-structured exam response.
If you would like help understanding the syllabus content for the exam, I have a separate video course available. In that course I go through each Learning Outcome of the syllabus one by one, breaking down the key concepts, models and scholars that you need to know for the exam.
The video course and this practice questions course can be used alongside each other, or you can choose the course that best fits where you are in your studies.
Why learn with me?
I'm a former teacher turned Procurement Consultant who has sat these exams herself. I create the study materials I wish I had access to when I was studying.
I know what it's like to learn all this content and then have to somehow turn it into a decent essay under exam conditions. And the teacher in me knows that simply showing you a model answer isn't enough. I want to help you understand why it's a good answer and how you can build one yourself.
You have lifetime access to these questions, there's no time limits or schedule to stick to which means you can do everything at your own pace. You also have access to the course Q&A, so if you're thinking "I answered this completely differently – is that okay?" you can ask me directly.
Knowing the syllabus is one thing. Showing the examiner that you understand it – and turning that knowledge into marks – is another. That's what this course is designed to help you practise.
