How to register
If you want to register for CSQS please follow the registration stages below.
STAGE 1 – ESTABLISH IF CSQS IS RIGHT FOR YOU
Read our notes Is CSQS right for me? These notes give detailed information on the level of the course and what qualifications and experience you may need. Before registering also please ensure you have read and understood the ICSA terms and conditions and student rules and regulations.
STAGE 2 - WORK OUT WHICH MODULES YOU ARE LIKELY TO NEED TO STUDY
Take a look at our exemptions policy to establish if you are likely to be exempt from any of the modules. If you believe you may be eligible for exemptions go to Stage 3. If you believe you will need to study all eight modules go to Stage 4.
STAGE 3 – APPLYING FOR EXEMPTIONS (IF APPLICABLE)
If you are applying for exemptions you will need to submit certified copies of your academic/professional qualification and a transcript. These must be in English. If your documents were not issued in English, they must be translated and certified as ‘an accurate translation of the original’ by someone who is fluent in both languages and is not related to you. Certified copies of both the original document and translated document should be submitted. Please only send copies of your documents, not the originals as we cannot guarantee their return to you.
Please Note: exemptions are offered and confirmed only once your previous qualifications and experience has been assessed. The Institute's exemption policy is subject to periodic change. You will only be awarded the exemptions available to you on the date of registration as a student. Also please be aware that there is an exemption fee payable for each exemption you have been awarded.
STAGE 4 - COMPLETE REGISTRATION FORMS
Complete the registration form and also the exam entry form. You need to complete an exam entry form for each exam session you want to enter (if you want to register for two modules at the same session you only need to complete one form).
STAGE 5 – ORGANISE PAYMENT
When you send your registration forms you will need to pay the initial registration fee and the annual subscription fee. The initial registration fee is:
£100 (£50 overseas reduced rate)
The annual subscription fee is as follows:
£150 (£110 overseas reduced rate) if you register between 1 August and 31 January.
