Hi Anna, the exams are spread across 4 years now, although I think the official length of the scheme is still 5 years, but if you pass all your exams in time then you can qualify in just over 4 years.
The first year or so are the CFAB level exams which consist of 6 computer based multiple choice exams, you then spend about 2 years sitting the professional level, which consists of the next 6 exams, these are longer and written rather than multiple choice. The final year is then spent doing the advanced level, which are the final 3 exams. These are similar to the professional level exams but slightly more difficult and longer again.

I hope this helps!
