CIMA has unveiled a new study resource based on examiner insights. Nasheen Wuisman explains all.
New year, new challenges! As we kick off 2026, many of you are already preparing for your next CGMA Case Study exam. The good news?
We have just unveiled a brand-new resource to guide your studies: CGMA Spotlight Topics. These are examiner-led deep dives into complex exam topics to help you tackle the exam with confidence.
As you work your way through the CGMA syllabus you may wonder how some of those topics appear in a Case Study exam. What’s the context? What’s the scope? And how do you apply that knowledge in a real-world scenario? CGMA Spotlight Topics answers these questions by breaking down some of the topics that can appear frequently in the Case Study exams and showing you how to address them in the exam, in a given scenario.
Using tasks from past papers, feedback from the examiners’ reports on weaker performance topics, insights from the examining team, and support from Kaplan, CGMA Spotlight Topics is a perfect addition to your exam preparation resources.
The resource is brand new, and more topics will be added after future exam windows.
