Dates Can Change
III publishes its calendar a year at a time and can revise it. The 2027 calendar was not out when this page was written, so no 2027 dates are given here. Check III's Online Examination Schedule page before you plan around a date.

Picking Your Session
- check_circleEnrol only when you can study steadily for the weeks before the exam. The enrolment window closes about seven weeks before the first exam day.
- check_circleIC-22 pairs well with IC-26 Life Assurance Finance in the same session, as long as you can prepare for both. III allows up to 6 papers per session.
- check_circleBook your slot on the first day of the slot-booking week if you want a weekend that suits you.
- check_circleIf you fail, the next session's enrolment window opens within weeks of the result, so a retake costs one session, not a year.
