- you are self-preparing, and want help in covering the syllabus items and understanding how to apply what you've studied to the exam tasks
- you have taken took a Module One course earlier, but need a "refresher" before the exam
- you took the exam before, but didn't pass - see here for what might have caused you to fail.
- you took the exam before and passed - but want to try again to get a higher grade!
You can now gain access to the whole programme lasting up to December 2025. All the materials included have been tried and tested on our Module One candidates since the Delta Modules Scheme started in 2008, and now that we're no longer running courses, we want to use them to continue helping people. That's why we're offering them for a donation to a charity of your choice (see the final section) of only €50 - or a rough equivalent in your own currency. You're free to choose any charity that you like to support, whether local or international - the local option may be useful if you're in a country that makes international currency transfer difficult. However if not, and if you don't have any other preference, we would suggest one of the following:
Water Aid The Malalala Fund Greenpeace
Save the Children Médecins Sans Frontières
Before enrolling, please read the following information carefully and make sure you know what you will and won't get from the course.
What the programme does and doesn't provide
1. This is not a full Module One course. In particular...
2. It is a self-access course and there will be no tutor contact or feedback. The exception to this is if there is a problem with the course itself - eg links not working - in which case please let us know immediately. However, see section 4 below - feedback is provided for each task you do in enough detail to allow you to self-assess, find further information on any points you missed, and check that you didn't make the most common mistakes for that question.
3. There are no specific units on the syllabus areas for Module One. However, guidance is given to help candidates who are self-preparing to organise their work. This includes guided reading and viewing from the web, organised topic by topic, in manageable chunks to do on a daily basis, allowing you to create your own "units". As you complete each topic, the exam preparation input and tasks are built in, so you complete everything in a logical order and aren't asked to do exam tasks before you've covered the relevant input from the syllabus.
4. If, on the other hand, you've already covered the syllabus content on a course and just want to focus on the exam tasks, you can go straight to the page for whichever task you want to work on. The course will prepare you for each of the eight tasks included in the exam, making sure you fully understand the requirements for each task, and the dos and don'ts for answering the questions. You'll find...
- input in the form of detailed analysis of each task (usually recorded presentations).
- practice activities to check that you have understood the requirements, and the dos and don'ts and that you can apply them to specific questions. All of these activities have suggested answers, and explanations of common mistakes, which will help you self-assess your performance.
- references to various Cambridge documents which discuss the task requirements and analyse candidate performance in past sessions. Some of these are available on the Cambridge website, but you'll also be given access to others which you'll need to consult
- Past papers and Examiner's Reports on each of them which you can use as mock exams.
2. You will have access to the materials from the time you enrol up to December 2025. This should give you time to work on the materials more intensively if you are aiming for the June exam or to take it more slowly if you are aiming for next December.
3. Note that the website won't be "glossy" or interactive. Because we are not earning anything from the courses we can't use "state of the art" platforms but need to depend on free sites. The programme is housed on Blogger, and will look much like this one.
Here's a screenshot of the first half of a typical unit. Notice that it focuses on one specific task, and starts with input on the format and requirements of the task - in the form of a recorded presentation, plus references to advice on the web and in various Cambridge documents not available on their website but which you'll be sent once you've enrolled. Then there are a number of exam preparation activities - six in this section, though you can only see the first two in this screenshot. They all have suggested answers and feedback on common mistakes made by candidates which you need to avoid. You'll also be directed to further reading which will help if your answers were incorrect or not detailed enough. Click on the image to see the extract more clearly.
- Proof of your donation to a charity. If you donate online, just take a screenshot of the page which confirms receipt of your donation and attach it to the message.
- The email address which you want us to use a) to register you on the main site for the programme and b) to send you the Cambridge documents not available on their website. It must be the address "attached" to the Google account you want to use to access the programme.
- A clear statement of the name of the course you wish to enrol for - here, The Module One Exam Preparation Programme (just to make sure we don't put you into the wrong course by mistake!)
