The CeMAP 2 & 3 changes in 2026.

The CeMAP 2 & 3 changes in 2026.

Author: Charlotte Hemmingway January 9, 2026 Duration: 12:50

In this episode, I break down exactly what’s changed, who it affects, and (most importantly) what you actually need to study for each exam.

We cover:

* How CeMAP 2 can now be sat in two halves

* Which topics are tested in each part

* Why Topics 16–19 sit separately

* How CeMAP 3 builds on CeMAP 2

* What’s changed with textbooks and digital materials

* What to do if you can’t find your content clearly in the portal

* The biggest mistakes learners are making in 2026

I also talk through the different ways you can approach your CeMAP studies, depending on how much structure and support you want:

If you want the fastest, most supported route, my 6 Weeks to CeMAP courses take you from start to exam-ready in a fixed timeframe, without taking time off work.

If you want flexibility my CeMAP e-learning platforms walk you through exactly what to study, in the right order, with clear exam focus.

And if you’re starting with the textbook and want guidance before committing to anything, I also share how to access my free study resources to help you study smarter, not harder.

If you’re studying CeMAP this year — especially if you’re self-studying or feeling unsure what to revise next — this episode will hopefully bring you one step closer to NOT throwing that textbook out the window.

If this episode helps, share it with someone else who’s studying — chances are they’re just as confused as you were.
