ICB became the first accountancy body to successfully offer all its exams in a home setting during the pandemic. With the help of a new tech partner, ICB exams now provide remote invigilation via âvirtualâ eyes and ears in the room.
ICB exam chief Peter Stewart explained that there is full flexibility to take the exam whenever it suits the candidate best: âICB exams are available weekdays or evenings, morning, noon and night.â He stressed there is now no need to worry about availability at your preferred centre â you are the boss!
Candidates do, however, need to ensure they can guarantee a space where there will be no interruptions for the duration of the exams and their internet connection will be stable for the same duration.
ICBâs first students went through their final M8 exam on 22 April, to qualify as professional bookkeepers, and the reports are things are ârunning smoothlyâ. Stewart was obviously âdelightedâ.
