At the Management level of the CIMA course, students step into the role of a finance manager. The MCS capstone exam simulates a real business environment, allowing candidates to demonstrate that they have acquired the knowledge, skills, technical ability, and professional mindset required for the role. This stage is a crucial progression within the CIMA levels, helping learners build confidence and expertise to handle managerial decision-making in practice.
MCS At Nanaska
Know Your Pre-Seen (KYP)
Our Know Your Pre-Seen resource is designed to simplify and enhance your understanding of the official CIMA pre-seen case study material. Instead of working with the raw document, we provide a clear, organized, and engaging version. It breaks down complex details into easy-to-follow explanations, supported by visuals such as images, graphs, and charts, along with definitions and supplementary notes. This makes the pre-seen more approachable for students preparing in Sri Lanka and abroad.
Industry Review (KYI)
The Know Your Industry pack gives students a foundation in the case study’s industry. It introduces real-world entities and stakeholders, explains technical aspects, and highlights sector-specific issues. The document covers key themes such as risk, finance, mergers, acquisitions, CSR, ethics, IT, legal concerns, and HR. By connecting the case study with real industry examples, learners see how CIMA Sri Lanka exam content links to the real business world.
Deep Dive
The Deep Dive provides a comprehensive examination of the pre-seen material. It critically analyses the facts and figures, explains their significance, and links them to both theory and practice. By exploring connections to real-world businesses and industries, it identifies potential tasks, challenges, and scenarios that might appear in the actual exam. This analysis strengthens the candidate’s preparation for handling the diverse demands of the CIMA Management Case Study exam.
Management Theory Revision
Revision support includes a complete set of notes and podcasts on E2, P2, and F2, tailored for the Management level. These materials are structured to refresh core theoretical knowledge efficiently, summarising complex content while still covering everything needed for the exam. This ensures learners at this level of the CIMA course are equipped to demonstrate the skills examiners expect.
Mock Exams with Feedback
Students are provided with ten practice mocks and four fully marked mocks. Each mock is carefully assessed, and students receive personalised feedback highlighting their strengths and areas for improvement. The practice mocks are also used in interactive group sessions, where tutors and peers exchange ideas, making preparation both collaborative and effective.
Special F2 Mock
A dedicated F2 mock paper is included to give students additional practice in financial management. This helps strengthen knowledge in the Finance Pillar and equips candidates to handle F2-related tasks more confidently in the case study exam.
Ground Rules for Case Study Success
The Ground Rules module explains how to align answers with the examiner’s marking scheme. It details which skills must be demonstrated, how to present them, and how to structure responses effectively. Past paper analysis is also included, guiding students to think strategically and frame balanced, examiner-friendly answers.
Core Activities & Case Study Issues
The case study is designed to replicate the responsibilities of a real finance manager. We provide guidance that matches these professional tasks with the exam’s core activities. Alongside this, we supply documents that outline potential exam-day issues, with practical advice on how to respond to them.
People & Leadership Skills
People and leadership skills have been introduced into the case study exams to reflect real workplace expectations. Since these areas are relatively new to many candidates, Nanaska provides a dedicated guide explaining what they mean and how to demonstrate them effectively in the exam.
Past Paper Review
We provide in-depth reviews of recent past papers to familiarise students with the types of questions that have been asked previously. This helps learners anticipate likely question styles and prepare more strategically.
Power & Financial Mock Papers
To further strengthen preparation, we offer a Power Mock that reviews theory scenarios linked to the Enterprise and Performance Pillars, as well as a Financial Mock focusing specifically on Finance Pillar questions. These mocks ensure coverage of all core exam areas.
Personalised Support & Discussion Platforms
Our students benefit from a range of support systems:
Additional Learning Tools
We also provide podcasts for on-the-go study, a Business English session to improve written communication skills for the three-hour online exam, and a flexible timetable tailored to individual study needs. These resources help students manage their time effectively and prepare with confidence.
24/7 Access & Individualised Attention
At Nanaska, learners are supported around the clock. Our lecturers are available via email, SMS, Skype, and forums at any time. We maintain small batch sizes to ensure personalised attention, so each student’s progress is closely monitored. This unique focus on individual support is one reason learners choose Nanaska when comparing CIMA course fees in Sri Lanka and seeking the best value for their investment.
