Assessment Details
How will I be assessed?
How will I be assessed?
This assessment is completed via LearnADR, CIArb's online learning platform. Candidates will be given 48 consecutive hours within a 5-day window to submit their award online. Candidates must achieve 70% in Part A, Part B and overall to pass the assessment.
Part A: Focuses on the technical merit and counts as 40% towards the overall mark.
Part B: Focuses on the judicial merit and counts as 60% towards the overall mark.
The assessment is split into two stages:
Stage One: This consists of the papers in the case. They are sufficient to enable you to grasp the nature of the case and the likely legal problems. Most of the documents are extracts only. You should consider the recitals you intend to include and the relevant law.
Stage Two: This is the equivalent of the hearing stage. It includes an extract from your (i.e. the arbitrator’s) notebook. This records the oral evidence and arguments the arbitrator has heard, as well as any other relevant documents. From the evidence you must make your findings of fact. Different candidates will no doubt make different findings. This is of no consequence, except that it means there are a great many possible answers to the question. When you have made your findings of fact, write the award. It must be a final award as regards the issues you decide.
Stage One of the assessment is released via LearnADR 10 days before the assessment start date.
Stage Two is released at 12pm noon London Time on the assessment start date via LearnADR too.
Stage 2 will be available for 5 days from the assessment start date and within those 5 days, you will have 48 consecutive hours to submit your award back onto LearnADR.
The assessment fee is not included in the course fee. It must be registered and paid for separately. The assessment fee is £408 inclusive of VAT.
Results are dispatched to candidates normally twelve weeks from the deadline date of the submission. Candidates will be informed of any delays.
“Please note: Success in the assessment is directly linked to tutorial attendance. Please ensure you attend all of the tutorials, and engage with the tutor. The tutorials are your opportunity to ask the tutor any questions you may have and gain further understanding on any course topics you feel you need further clarity on.”
