What our students say:
“I was recommended to First intuition by a friend, as I was finding the CIMA exams
a challenge. They didn’t only teach me the course, but took extra time to make
sure I passed and I now I have achieved what I thought would be impossible, I am
now CIMA qualified. My only regret is that I didn’t find them sooner... Thank you
to the whole team at first intuition you do an amazing job, I will not only miss you
but the cakes as well”
“So glad I moved
to first intuition,
the personal
approach and
environment has
led to laughs,
friends and first
time passes”
