PREP – The ICS International Revision Course

Every year ICS students descend on Warwick University in Coventry (in the heart of the UK) to attend the Institute's annual residential revision course known as PREP.

PREP is a popular event which, with limited spaces, tends to sell out every year.  Students come from across the globe with, typically, around 50% of attendees coming from beyond the UK.

The entry fee of £695 represents excellent value for money and includes all lectures, a mock exam, accommodation and meals. Aside from providing students with an intense, interactive and highly motivating study experience tailored specifically towards preparation for the ICS exams, it's a valuable networking event. Students who attend PREP find it challenging, but enjoyable.

PREP is open to all students irrespective of their method of study.

Year on year, the pass rate for PREP students sits at about 75% - a true indication of the value of the weekend.

The event starts with registration on Thursday evening (21^th March) between 18.00 - 21.00 followed by a Meet and Greet reception hosted by the lecturers, tutors and ICS staff. Sessions start on Friday morning and your timetable will include a mock exam, the results of which will be given to you as feedback during the course of the weekend. The evenings give students a chance to socialise and network. The weekend concludes with afternoon tea on Sunday afternoon (24^st March).

To secure your place at PREP, fill in the entry form on the right and send it back to our Customer Service Team at enquiries@ics.org.uk.  If you have any questions at all feel free to email, or call the office on  +44 (0)207 623 1111.

With limited spaces we are once again expecting to sell out. Please book early to avoid disappointment.

This year the Institute of Chartered Shipbrokers Educational Trust Fund are offering Bursaries to attend PREP.  Please email events@ics.org.uk and to see if you meet the criteria.
