IASA Pre & Post-Codification

[fod676]

Does anyone know if the IASA readings have changed significantly from last year, since the current syllabus is using an updated version of the IASA text? I’m using last year’s version of the CAMAR manual to supplement the readings, and it focuses on the pre-codification aspects of IASA and then provides a separate section on post-codification rules. Is this still valid, or is everything in the new IASA text considered “post-codification” now? I’m still not clear on the distinctions of pre- and post-codification and what we are expected to know from each. Any help clearing this up would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Although I haven't actually started on the IASA material yet, it is supposed to be post-codification (ie, it incorporates all those SSAPs). I'm not sure if anything on the exam is still pre-codification? Anyone else have any ideas?

Yes, they have changed significantly. Not entirely, but a lot. Enough so that when I compared the two to see if I could just read the part that changed, I found it simpler to just pitch the old and read the new.

I believe you are right.
