Qualifico is a professional learning platform for people preparing for demanding qualifications around a full-time job. Choose your qualification and exam, then study with structured lessons, focused practice and clear insight into your progress. STUDY YOUR SYLLABUS, NOT AROUND IT Every lesson, question and flashcard is mapped to your exam's syllabus, with curated, reviewed content. Pick your qualification and exam, and Qualifico structures the rest - including a short quiz to help you choose a qualification if you're still deciding. LEARN IN MORE THAN ONE WAY • Guided lessons that combine flashcards, true/false checks and practice in one flow • Objective questions by topic, with explanations you can review • Exam-style practice sessions when you want sharper conditions • Flashcards and quick drills for short study windows KNOW WHERE YOU STAND Qualifico turns your study activity into signals you can act on: syllabus coverage, topic strength, weak areas, score trends and learning time. Weekly reports summarise what changed and suggest what to focus on next. AI TEACHER SUPPORT Ask AI Teacher to explain a concept, unpack an answer or quiz you on a topic — study support built around your exam, not official advice. The Qualifico web platform includes further AI-supported study tools, and iOS subscribers also get access to the online platform where supported. KEEP MOMENTUM Build a study streak, see your practice calendar and join friends on the scoreboard for a little friendly accountability. Study is easier when you can see it adding up. STUDY ANYWHERE Short sessions are the point: revise on the commute, run a quick set of questions between meetings and pick up where you left off online. Where supported, written-response practice is available through Qualifico on the web. QUALIFICATIONS Qualifico currently supports ACCA, CFA Program, CFA IMC, CAIA and SQE exams, with structured content for each. A subscription unlocks full access for your chosen qualification. INDEPENDENCE Qualifico is an independent study platform. It is not endorsed by, sponsored by or affiliated with any qualification body, and it does not guarantee a pass or any specific result. Use it alongside official materials and current syllabus guidance. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
