7. Student Benefits, Supports and Responsibilities

7.1 Student Orientation Session

Every newly registered student will be invited to an Orientation Session which will normally be
held during the week before module commencement. The purpose of the Orientation Session
is to help students to understand better the requirements expected of them on the workshops,
examinations and practical experience to become a CPA of the Institute. During the
Orientation Session, students will be briefed on the module studying and examination
techniques as well as the requirements for the workshops. You will meet other students and
can also take the opportunity to form an Informal Study Group at the Orientation Session.

7.2 Study Supports

7.2.1 Module Preparation Seminars and Examination Techniques Seminars

To assist QP students to better prepare for the four module examinations, the Institute
has organised a series of Module Preparation and Examination Techniques Seminars.
Students who are interested in joining these seminars should refer to the Institute's
website (Becoming a Hong Kong CPA > Support and training > Examination assistance
functions) for details.

7.2.2 QP Learning Centre

The purpose of the Learning Centre is to provide online support to students by
providing access to module study materials such as e-book, past years' examination
questions and answers, examination panelists' reports and useful links to relevant
websites. In particular, you should visit the Noticeboard in the QP Learning Centre
regularly when you are preparing for module workshops as well as the examinations.
For any amendments to workshop materials, the Institute will post them onto the
Noticeboard for students' information.

Please use your Login ID and password to access the QP Learning Centre (Members'
