Examination Preparation Programs

The Institute offers a number of programs - a CKE Preparation Program, a SOA Preparation Program and a UFE Finalist Program; in addition to two self-study publications - The CKE Candidates' Guide and The UFE Candidates' Guide to the CICA Handbooks. These programs and self-study publications are available to supplement your personal study program for the Core-Knowledge Examination (CKE), the School of Accountancy (SOA) end-of-school examinations and the Uniform Evaluation (UFE).  

CKE Preparation Program

The CKE Preparation Program is a comprehensive ten-day program that covers the Specific Competencies defined in "The UFE Candidates' Competency Map" that are examined on the CKE. The program is designed to help you prepare for the CKE through a review of technical material, short problems and multiple-choice questions. As part of the program, you can purchase a set of practice questions that come with solutions to allow you to assess your own performance. Students not able to attend the course may choose the "Materials Only" option.

SOA Preparation Program

The SOA Preparation Program is a seven-day program that is specifically designed to help you develop the professional judgment, case writing and integration skills that are essential to be successful at the SOA. As part of the program, you can purchase a mock SOA examination that will be marked by experienced markers. The markers will provide you with feedback to help you improve your performance. Students not able to attend the course may choose the "Materials Only" option.

UFE Finalist Program

The UFE Finalist Program is a five-day course that demonstrates reading, planning and response-writing skills, and allows you to develop these skills for the UFE. It includes two practice papers that will be marked by experienced markers. This program provides a key element in the final steps of preparing for UFE success.

Self-Study Publications

Two self-study publications, authored by Mick Norgrove, are available to help you prepare for the CKE, the SOA and the UFE. These publications are revised and updated annually.
