What is the CIMA Finance Leadership Program (CIMA FLP)?
The CIMA Finance Leadership Program (FLP) study pathway gives candidates access to a digital CIMA learning platform. This learning portal has all the study resources for the entire CIMA syllabus you require to complete the CIMA professional qualification. Moreover the CIMA FLP offers study resources designed to help you master CIMA’s skill-sets and competencies at your own pace. Furthermore, knowledge, skills and competencies proficiency of each subject area (Enterprise, Performance, Finance) are regularly assessed using multiple-choice questions and business simulation tasks embedded in the CIMA FLP portal.
The CIMA Finance Leadership Program (FLP) is a new, self-directed digital option for CIMA candidates. It is the most convenient way to complete the CIMA Professional Qualification and earn the ACMA / CGMA designations. The CIMA Finance Leadership Program study pathway helps you build competencies and prepare for exams, all in one digital platform.
All three CIMA levels (operational, management and strategic) of the CGMA FLP culminate with a Case Study Exam. The exam assesses your mastery of the skills learnt in E, F and P. Most importantly the exam assesses your ability to apply your knowledge and skills in real-world business situations.
The CGMA FLP differs from the old Objective Tests (OT) study pathway. Instead of taking OT exams through Pearson VUE, the CGMA FLP seamlessly combines learning and assessments. This ensures candidates understand key topics, gain new skills, and apply their knowledge in real business situations before moving to the next competency or subject area.

Competencies contain Skillsets and Topics. Knowledge Checks are a learning tool and are not graded. End of Topic Assessments are graded with a pass mark of at least 50% average. Business Simulation Assignments are a learning tool and are not graded: 3–6 question groups, a mini case study at the end of each competency, real-world situations, case-study confidence, extensive feedback, and no pass or fail.
