SFJ Level 3 Award Costs.

The IPI Foundation Course incorporating one SFJ exam attempt costs £299. Link https://www.ipitraining.org.uk/course-content

If you have previous experience qualifying you to enter the exam direct, we are currently offering this at a cost of £125. This will include a PDF copy of the recently updated IPI Investigator Manual (normally £75) and one attempt at the SFJ Level 3 Exam.  If you would prefer to do the exam without the provision of the IPI Investigator Manual, the cost will be £100.

Prior to the exam there will be a brief refresher input provided by an IPI trainer.

Should it be necessary for any student to re-sit the examination, the resit will cost £50 per resit.

This is not just for IPI members that don’t yet have the qualification, but is open for anyone who is interested in securing this important industry qualification.
