The notes
IAM Certificate revision notes
The notes I made while preparing for the exam: 22 handwritten pages, scanned as a PDF. Condensed to the definitions that get tested and the distinctions that get confused.
Contents
What is in them
Twenty-two pages: a cover, a contents page, and twenty pages of handwritten notes. They are grouped by topic, the way the material is taught, rather than in syllabus order, so the ideas that belong together sit together. A colour key runs through all twenty pages.
- AM Policy and Strategy
- Assessing and Managing AM Risks
- Whole Life Costs and AM Planning
- Managing Asset Lifecycle and Decisions
- People and Information in AM
Because the parts are grouped as taught, they cut across the five syllabus modules rather than matching them one for one. If you want the syllabus order, the free module summaries follow it.
A page
What a page looks like
One of the twenty. This is the part on policy and strategy: the document hierarchy drawn out, from the organisational plan down to the work itself, with the policy, the SAMP and the asset management plan in their places and a note on what each one holds.

Honestly
What these are, and what they are not
These are revision notes, which means they are compressed on purpose. They assume you are going to read the syllabus material as well, and they are most useful in the last few weeks, when the problem stops being coverage and starts being recall. If you have not started studying yet, buy them later.
They are one person's notes, made for one person's exam, and they carry the emphases that came from that. They are not a syllabus, not an official summary, and not a replacement for doing questions. Nothing in them is reproduced from the official material or from anyone else's notes.
The question bank comes in the same £19 purchase, so there is nothing to choose between. If you would rather practise than read, start there, and try the thirty free questions before you spend anything at all.
