Fabulous to see you want to pursue an ICB qualification!

We often asked what steps to follow next, so lets give you some guidelines in this mail - you will notice there are links to short little video's and articles to best explain.

ICB operates as an examination body and we do not provide tuition nor study material, can we encourage you to watch this short little video to explain it best.
