Course Benefits

ICA Specialist Certificates are designed for anyone wanting focused yet accessible knowledge in specific areas of risk.

Assessment

At the end of the course you will be assessed by means of a one hour multiple choice exam that is taken online.

ICA qualifications, where stated, are awarded in association with Alliance Manchester Business School, the University of Manchester.

Prerequisites

The course is specifically designed to be detailed yet accessible. Prior subject matter knowledge will be useful, but is not essential.

To get the most from the course, a good standard of English is required.

In order to study any ICA qualification you need to be a member of the ICA. The fee for ICA Affiliate Membership for one year is £121 payable to ICA and includes your assessment and access to invaluable knowledge resources that will help with your course as well as many other member benefits and services. You can apply for membership at the same time as you enrol for a course.
