Important Examination Regulations - Please Read Carefully

  1. The use of mobile phones and other electronic devices is not permitted and all such devices must be turned off before entering the examination room and remain off for the duration of the examinations.
  2. Candidates are not permitted to bring books, documents, articles or any papers other than proof of identity into the examination room. Any candidate in breach of this rule will have the material confiscated by the invigilator who will send a report to the Examinations Administration as soon as the examination has ended.
  3. The candidate must submit answers that are entirely his/her own work. Any collusion, or attempted collusion with others, will result in the candidate being excluded from the examination and a report sent to the Examinations Administrator.
  4. Commercially manufacturered stencils or templates may be allowed but must be declared to the invigilator prior to the start of the examination.
  5. Candidates may use their own calculators, provided that they conform to all of the following criteria: (a) Non-programmable (i.e. incapable of storing information other than that provided to enable the calculator to perform its normal functions) ; (b) Self-contained with its own internal battery supply; (c) Silent in operation.
  6. Any calculator brought into the examination room must be seen by the invigilator to be in the 'off' mode before it is switched on for use. The use of calculators does not absolve the candidate from the need to explain his/her working.
  7. The Institution reserves the right to exclude any candidate from any examination and to withhold any certificate of the Institution, whether by examination or otherwise, in the event of conduct that is in breach of the Examinations Regulations.
  8. The Institution reserves the right to amend the Examination Regulations and Syllabus on an annual basis.
