The pass mark for each paper is determined by the JIEB, but is no higher than 50%.

The Joint Insolvency Examinations Board (JIEB) Examinations 2010

Why take JIEB in 2010?There is an increasing recognition of the need to have people with specialist knowledge and experience of handling insolvencies, and increased value in having staff with an understanding of insolvency procedure and practices.

In order to take the next step towards becoming an insolvency practitioner, you will need to pass the JIEB examinations.

You can apply to sit these examinations if you are a member of a Recognised Professional Body (RPB), or have satisfied the requirements of the Insolvency Practitioners Association (IPA), or Secretary of State for Trade and Industry.

The ExamThe JIEB are a set of exams with a practical emphasis, and are held once each year in November. Candidates must sit the examination through the relevant RPB or sponsoring body.

The examination consists of three papers;• Paper 1 - Liquidations• Paper 2 - Administrations, CVAs and

Receiverships• Paper 3 - Personal Insolvency

Each paper is three and a half hours in length and consists of a mixture of written and numerical questions on practical insolvency issues. The examination is open book and candidates in 2010 will need to bring to the final examination an unmarked copy of Butterworths Insolvency Law Handbook.

The overall standard is equivalent to the final qualifying examinations of recognised accountancy and legal bodies. You must pass all three papers to complete the qualification. You may attempt any number of papers at their first attempt, however any candidates that sit and retain a pass in any one paper must then pass the remaining two at the same session.

All papers must be passed within a period of 5 years of your first attempt.

It is now possible to take just the Personal Insolvency Paper to apply for a voluntary arrangement only licence. Details of this can be found in this brochure (see page 5).

This brochure relates to the JIEB sitting taking place in November 2010. Details of other sittings will be available on our website www.bpp.com/insolvency

Section 389A of the Insolvency Act 1986 (inserted by the Insolvency Act 2000 on the 1st January 2003) allows the Secretary of State to recognise bodies to authorise their members to act as office-holders in Voluntary Arrangements.

Members of such bodies who meet acceptable requirements, as to education, practical experience and training can act as a nominee and supervisor taking appointments as Voluntary Arrangement Practitioners.

The Joint Insolvency Examination Board have recently agreed to allow candidates to sit just the personal insolvency examination at the November 2010 sitting. (Previously first-time candidates have been required to sit a minimum of two papers). At the time of writing it

is expected that successful candidates, meeting the other criteria of their RPBs, will be able to apply for IVA-only licenses but as yet, the date for this has not been confirmed.

S.389A has only recently been brought into force and candidates will need to get in touch with their RPBs in relation to the obtaining of a license.

To meet the needs of candidates wishing to take the JIEB personal insolvency paper BPP have a number of programmes leading to the November 2010 exam.

You can find out more by contacting the Insolvency Practitioners Association.

Frequently Asked Questions

How To Book Tel: 0845 226 2422 Fax: 0161 237 9650 email: bookings@bpp.com

First, decide how many papers you want to attend. The majority of candidates still take all 3 papers at the same sitting, however increasingly candidates will take 1 or 2 papers at the first attempt.

This decision will often depend on your experience, and the time you have available to study. We are happy to advise you on this, should you need any help.

Secondly, decide which papers you want to attend. If this is not your first attempt at the Joint Board, or you are attempting all 3, then this will be an easy decision, but if you are approaching the exams for the first time, there are important things to think about…

Do you intend to take the whole JIEB qualification, or are you only interested in the Personal Insolvency paper? Would you prefer to take 2 papers this year, and if so, which ones…

Thirdly, How do you want to study? Many candidates will take the full link programme for each of the papers they attempt, as this will give them the greatest level of preparation for the examinations, however, if your time is limited, or you are self-funding, then distance learning, or a selection of courses may be an option.
