Levels

We offer all 5 Qualification levels, each consisting of units addressing specific topics in procurement and supply.

On the successful completion of one level, students will receive an internationally recognized certificate or diploma, that will represent the ticket to the race for career enhancement.

Completing any of the CIPS programme level represents literally a distinguished qualification.

ININ offers Guided Learning programs for the full qualifications’ portfolio, so you can find just the right one for you. The Guided Learning Courses can be organized as an open course in our venue in Bucharest, or in-house at your premises and tailored to your organization needs.

Transferring from the 2013 to 2018 Syllabus

Any CIPS students who have passed exams (or been awarded exemptions from exams) based upon the 2013 Syllabus, will be given credits for modules within the updated 2018 Syllabus, as shown in the following tables. This ensures that students are not disadvantaged by any changes to the Syllabus.

Learning resources for the 2018 syllabus are available from February 2019. The CBE exams for the CIPS updated syllabus, are the only one available at all CIPS approved exam centres from July 2019.

Last exam opportunity based on the CIPS 2013 syllabus, was available at CIPS approved exam centres in May 2019.
