Hi All

I completed AAT in 2004 and now feel ready to take on the challenge of CIMA :? I am planning to study at home with BPP and am aiming to take the first 2 papers in May. Can anyone give me any experiences they have of; CIMA study in general, home study or BPP?

Any help/advice appreciated.

Sonia

    I found the admin side of BPP awful.

    Hi Sonia.

    Who did you use in the end? Was it for home study?

    I am now with FTC and am very happy so far.

    I've heard a few comments about the downside of the admin at BPP - however I MUST emphasise that their tutors are not to be tarred with the same brush.

    The tutors at BPP are absolutely fantastic (in fact I found them far better than FTC though that was a few year's ago). I have heard that BPP have addressed the issues about poor administration (which they have admitted left a lot to be desired).

    FTC may be very good but I did my AAT and ACCA with BPP Manchester and have nothing but praise for their tutoring methods.

    Good luck whatever you decide.

    Hello

    What did you decide in the end? I'm thinking of going with Premier Training, although one of my colleagues rates FTC. I'd be interested to know if you made a decision.
