CCIFP Certification
Exam
Getting
Ready
for
the
Exam
and
Taking
the
Exam
HOW
SHOULD
I
PREPARE
FOR
THE
EXAM?
ICCIFP
offers
the
following
suggestions
for
preparing
for
the
exam:
-
Review
the
exam
content
outline
and
ask
yourself
the
following
questions:
Plan
your
studying
based
on
your
answers
to
these
questions.
For
example,
for
content
areas
you
have
a
good
understanding
of
and
use
every
day,
you
may
only
need
to
do
a
quick
review
to
prepare
for
the
exam,
whereas
for
areas
with
which
you
are
less
familiar,
you
may
decide
that
you
need
more
in-depth
study
or
training
before
taking
the
exam.
When
planning
your
studying,
you
should
also
think
about
what
percentage
of
the
exam
questions
will
cover
each
major
content
area:
Accounting
&
Reporting,
Income
Recognition,
Budgeting
&
Planning,
Risk
Management,
Taxes,
HR,
Legal,
IT,
and
Joint
Ventures.
Details
are
available
in
the
Candidate
Bulletin.
If
you
are
not
very
familiar
with
a
content
area
that
will
include
a
significant
proportion
of
the
exam
questions,
you
probably
should
spend
some
additional
time
studying
this
area.
-
Decide
which
resources
will
best
help
you
to
prepare
for
the
exam.
The
references
listed
in
the
Candidate
Bulletin
may
be
helpful
when
you
are
reviewing
the
content
areas
included
on
the
exam.
(Note:
The
listing
of
these
references
is
intended
for
use
as
a
study
aid
only.
ICCIFP
does
not
intend
the
list
to
imply
endorsement
of
specific
texts,
nor
are
the
questions
on
the
exam
taken
directly
from
these
texts.)
You
may
choose
to
study
on
your
own
or
if
you
know
other
construction
financial
professionals
in
your
area
who
are
taking
the
exam,
you
may
want
to
form
a
study
group.
-
Answer
the
sample
questions
to
help
familiarize
yourself
with
the
type
of
questions
that
will
be
on
the
exam.

WHAT
WILL
TAKE
PLACE
DURING
THE

The

observed
during
the

such

unauthorized
information
or
aid
to
or
from
other
examinees,
or
attempting
to
remove
exam
materials
or
notes
from
the
testing
room,
may
be
sufficient
cause
to
end
your
participation
in
the
exam,
or
to
invalidate
or
cancel
your
score.
Irregularities
may
be
identified
by
