The course encourages students to become responsible borrowers and sensible savers, and to appreciate the need for financial planning throughout their life. It prepares them for further study by developing the core skills of critical analysis and evaluation, verbal communication (through classroom discussion) and written communication. This greater understanding of financial planning can support entry to university on finance and banking courses and a wide range of other disciplines. It also supports progress to a wide range of entry level occupations within finance, ensuring that learners understand the sector and have a range of transferrable skills and knowledge.
Each unit is assessed through a combination of Multiple Choice Questions (Part A) and a written paper (Part B). Part A can be sat via the LIBF e-test electronic testing system or via a paper-based MCQ examination. Part B will always be sat via paper-based examination. A total of 200 marks are available from both units comprising 100 marks per unit. Part A: 35 multiple choice questions in a 45-minute examination. Part B: pre-release case study requiring essay responses in a 105-minute examination. Part B will also assess spelling, punctuation and grammar (SPAG) through the essay responses.
