CII recognition of prior learning awards are made on an individual, case by case basis, determined by the match to current CII qualifications on the date an application is submitted. The award takes into account any CII qualification units you have passed and / or been awarded as prior learning exemptions.
To provide confirmation of eligibility to a prior learning award, we require a fully completed application. Recognition of prior learning awards change as qualifications and the CII prior learning strategy evolve. We recommend that candidates apply promptly on completing non-CII qualifications.
If you have more than one CII PIN (Permanent Identity Number) please contact Customer Service before you make an application. This will help ensure your full qualification record appears on a single record.
