1 Guide to CIMA in Ukraine Key information The full CIMA syllabus contains 15 papers. This includes the Certificate in Business Accounting and the CIMA Professional Qualification. No time limit for completion and four exit levels (Certificate in Business Accounting, Diploma, Advanced Diploma, and Membership). Certificate in Business Accounting (entry level) is completed by sitting five computer based assessments taken at local CBA centres any time during the year (C01-C05)*. Operational, management and strategic levels comprise nine paper-based exams taken in the designated exam centres in May and November**. Test of Professional Competence (final level) combines a case study exam (written or on PC) and practical experience record (to demonstrate three years of work experience). Up to six papers can be taken per exam diet. However it is advisable to attempt only two papers in one exam diet. This excludes entry level and strategic levels (all three papers of strategic level have to be attempted in the first sitting). *If a student wishes to sit operational or the management level exam in May, he or she should complete all Certificate in Business Accounting exams by 1 March. For November exams all certificate level exams should be completed by 1 September. **Students entering operational, management and strategic level exams need to register and submit copies of authorised certificates and transcripts by the 31 January or 31 July to take part in the next exam sitting.
