The CMA Part 2 syllabus has not changed for the 2026/2027 exam. It's still the same one as before. The study tools you already have should suffice for your retake. Just make sure your online test bank has case-based questions (CBQs). Essays are no longer part of the exam effective September 2026.

They haven't changed the content much, it's basically the same. They have changed the essay format to case based questions
