Paul Archer’s CeMAP Online Bootcamp - 2024/25

You really want to get it done but you don’t have the money or time to attend a long drawn out class. Expensive, when you factor in the travel and accommodation.

You’re struggling to study on your own with just the textbook and you need some help, guidance and expertise.

Our Learning Management System is mobile friendly and allows you to watch the videos on any device with a web browser and that includes your phone. The small screen size is not ideal to see Paul's whiteboard which he uses to explain things on camera, so you may prefer a laptop or tablet.

You need to book your CeMAP exams once you've worked out your schedule.

The lessons are based around videos. You watch the videos and enjoy the interactive experience of Paul teaching you a topic. You can watch these time and time again. The lessons are delivered via our Learning Management System – and you can view them on any device to suit. In all, you have just over 100 hours of video footage and each week more is added exclusively for Bootcampers.

Every other day, you'll get to listen to a podcast where Paul will talk to you on the topics you’ve just been watching videos on. Essentially, he’ll be chatting to you around the LIBF textbook to ensure you understand everything so far. In all you have just under 2,000 minutes of online audio content to stream, that's 33 hours covering the whole syllabus. Again all of this is exclusive to Bootcampers.

Some of the lessons will involve exams to see how you’re progressing and you’ll also have access to eBooks of Paul’s renowned Revision Guides.

We have an Online Community Hub to chat and discuss your learnings with other Bootcampers. We're all one team.

You can email Paul at any time, using the Learning Management System, with questions.

Every Monday, you can watch Paul's CeMAP Livestream broadcast on YouTube - www.paularcher.tv  This livestream will be recorded and you can view this at anytime. Many Bootcampers prefer to do this.

You’ll have access to the CeMAP Online Bootcamp for 365 days but the aim is to get your CeMAPs done and dusted within this time frame.

Set Your Pace

We've created three streams to help you pace yourself on Bootcamp. We call this "Set Your Pace". Below you can find details of our three paces - running, jogging and walking.

You'll see that we have given you suggested timescales for each pace.  These are your choice, just recommendations. You can take as long or short as you like as Bootcamp is completely flexible for how long you take to complete your exams.

Some people like a little bit of guidance or help.

Run

This is our fast-track version. You can complete your exams within one month without crashing. We suggest you devote 30 hours per week and this pace is really only suitable for someone who is not working full-time anywhere else and is driven to work extremely hard for one month.

We've created a PDF schedule to help you pace yourself and you can download this by clicking here.

Jog

This is our medium-track version. You take two months to complete the exams devoting around 15 hours per week. Quite possible if you're working full time elsewhere but if you are juggling other commitments like family and partners, you might find it a struggle. Remember these are just suggestions; you can go as fast or slow as you wish.

You can download the schedule here.

Walk

Finally we have our walking pace. Four months and 8 hours per week. Ideal for someone working full-time with other commitments too. This is the favourite pace for most people on Bootcamp but remember you have up to 12 months so there's plenty of time.

You can download the schedule here.
