The objectives of the CKE are to:

• identify those who possess the minimum level of core knowledge in The UFE Candidates’ Competency Map subject areas required to attend the SOA and/or attempt the SOA Examination;
• provide those permitted to attend the SOA and/or attempt the SOA Examination with a diagnostic assessment of their strengths and weaknesses by Competency Map subject area thereby assisting students in 'fine-tuning' their study plans; and 
• motivate students preparing for the SOA and the UFE to include an appropriate review of core-knowledge, as defined by the Competency Map, in their study plans at an early stage

The CKE screen is intended to ensure that those attending the SOA and/or attempting the SOA Examination have a positive impact on both the ability of the SOA to meet its objectives and the ability of students in attendance to reach their maximum learning potential. The minimum level of achievement required to attend the SOA and/or attempt the SOA Examination will be determined by the Institute's examinations committee.
