Frequently asked questions
How many modules do I need for CIPS Level 3?
Five: the four core modules L3M1 to L3M4, plus one elective, either L3M5 Socially Responsible Procurement or L3M6 Socially Responsible Warehousing and Distribution. That makes the 30 credits of the Advanced Certificate.
What type of exam is CIPS Level 3?
Every Level 3 module is a 2-hour objective-response (multiple-choice) exam. Objective-response (OR) exams are multiple choice and need 70% to pass.
What is the CIPS Level 3 pass mark?
70% for each objective-response exam, and you need to pass every module you take to achieve the award.
Are these the official CIPS past papers?
No. CIPS does not publish its live exam papers. Gradezup papers are original exam-style practice papers written to the official module syllabus and modelled on the style and difficulty of the real exams, with answers and explanations for every question.
Can I try a paper for free?
Yes. Most courses include at least one free paper you can sit straight away, so you can see the format and your score before you enrol. Enrolling unlocks every paper in that module, with lifetime access.
