Institute news

CISI exam venues are now closed until 1st May, with the exception of Birmingham which is closed until 28th May. There is a live list of test centre closures on the CISI website launch. The CISI is contacting candidates with the option to transfer their exam booking to an alternative date, free of charge. This option is immediately available at customer.support@cisi.org

Impact on courses

For all courses we have extended MyKaplan access to allow extra time for you to study. Live Online classes continue to run per published schedules.

End Point Assessments

I was due to sit my End Point Assessment (EPA) in the next few months. What do the exam cancellations mean for my Apprenticeship?

It is not possible currently for apprentices to get to Gateway for EPA without completing their CISI qualification. Your Talent Coach will be getting in contact with you, or do speak with your Kaplan Apprenticeship account manager to talk through your timeline and any extension to the programme duration.

Who is best to contact for help and advice?

If you have any questions or would like further guidance, please email our Client and Student Services team at citybookings@kaplan.co.uk, or for anyone on an Apprenticeship we recommend reaching out to your talent coach or Kaplan Apprenticeship account manager.

Safeguarding and Mental Health

If you have any safeguarding concerns, please contact us via Safeguarding@kaplan.co.uk during working hours. It is a confidential email account.

There are two very good charities who have out of hours support: NSPCC for concerns about young people 0808 800 5000 or the Samaritans 116123.

We can also signpost you to several helpful organisations - we have collated contact details of organisations such as Anxiety UK, Mind, CALM, and Young Minds.
