The topics covered in the syllabus are mapped on the competency statement, which you can find under recommended downloads below. With the cumulative principle, what you learn at CAP1 will be expanded in CAP2 and FAE.

Before enrolling onto CAP1 students are required to complete the exemption process. Depending on your undergraduate degree you may have covered some of this material and could be eligible to gain exemptions.

CAP1 runs, thanks to its online only format, across the island of Ireland. Timetables will be available on the student portal closer to course commencement date
