New assessment measures are coming to the Finance Leadership Programme, with implementation planned for late August.

Show host Kevin Gormley and returning guest Colin Ward explain the four changes, including limits on TLA attempts within a 12-hour period, topic-specific time allowances, a new learner conduct policy, and the removal of question-level feedback. They outline why these measures are being introduced, how they are designed to strengthen confidence in the programme, and what learners can expect when communications begin around six weeks before launch. If you're studying through FLP, it offers useful context ahead of the rollout.
