How to study a flexible CII Certificate route
Confirm the units on your Learning Statement first, study the core route before its options, and prepare to the current syllabus and exam guide for each selected unit.
Core concepts
Concept 1
Motor products combine compulsory third-party requirements with wider policy cover for vehicles, drivers, liabilities and additional benefits.
Exam cue: Separate the minimum legal requirement from the cover actually purchased under the policy.
Concept 2
Risk assessment and rating consider the vehicle, use, driver, location, claims experience and other relevant exposures.
Exam cue: Match the vehicle, user and business use to the relevant product and underwriting information.
Concept 3
Claims and data systems support investigation, fraud control and uninsured-driving processes alongside FOS and FSCS protection.
Exam cue: For a claim, identify driver entitlement, vehicle and use, policy cover, third-party impact and evidence.

MIB
The Motor Insurers' Bureau has roles connected with victims of uninsured or untraced driving under applicable agreements.
