Tuition comprises of four units covering Compliance and ethical practices; Business management; Business systems; and Business marketing.

The new qualification is available using Propertymark Qualifications’ new remote invigilated examination service meaning that agents are able to take their exams at locations convenient to them, be that at home or at work.
