IAB Exam centre
Permalink Closed

Im about to start doing the IAB Level 2 in book-keeping...as a sort of gentle introduction into accounts.


Im studying via distance learning with Aberdeen College, but live in Birmingham. This obviously means that I need to find a local exam centre. The college says that the IAB website would have a list of centres, but I have looked on every page on their website, but cannot find any mention of a list of exam centres! Argh!


Does anyone know how I can find out where I can sit the exam in the Birmingham area, please?? Ive emailed IAB, but they dont reply. Grrr!


Also, can you take the exam at any time, or are they only available on set dates (twice a year)?


Thanks a lot.

I'm sure my tutor gave me the list of centres when I was doing the IAB exams, so would have thought your college should be able to provide you with it. But failing that try phoning IAB - they always seemed quite helpful when I had to contact them - but never tried by e-mail!

The exams are held on set dates in Jan & June every year.

Good luck with it all.

Sure you'll have plenty of time. I think you might be able to sit level 2 & 3 certificates at same time if you want to try and do it quicker?!

You can sit this exam at South Staffordshire College. (the old Cannock Tech). They run L2 & L3 exams mid Jan & mid June. I self-taught myself the L3 payroll & enrolled for just the exam, you are responsible for enrolling for the exam via the IAB (with permission from the college). You may have to pay an admin fee and will need a quick interview as a tutor will have to sign to sayyou are capable to do the exams. L2 & L3 courses start again next week for the exams in June. Trust this helps!
