ACCA

 

ACCA - Association of Chartered Certified Accountants

ACCA is the global body for professional accountants with 170,000 members and 436,000 students in over 170 countries. With a network of 83 offices and centres across the world, ACCA offers business-relevant, first-choice qualifications to people of application, ability and ambition around the world who seek a rewarding career in accountancy, finance and management.

The ACCA Qualification will provide you with skills and knowledge relevant to any business, which means you are free to choose which type of accountancy role and organisation you want to work for. There is a strong focus on professional values, ethics and governance. This is essential because the profession is moving towards strengthened codes of conduct, regulation and legislation, which is why the ACCA qualification has an increased focus on professionalism and ethics in accounting.

Professionalism and ethics is examined at the highest level in the ACCA Qualification. It is also a main part of the practical experience you must complete to qualify.

  • Two A Levels and three GCSEs (or their equivalent).
  • These need to be in five separate subjects including English and Maths.
  • Ethics – the Professional Ethics module.
    • If you do not possess the minimum entry requirements, you can still join ACCA to study accounting as a student, but you will need to start your studies with the Foundation-level qualifications, collectively referred to as Foundations in Accountancy. When you have completed the Diploma in Accounting and Business in at the Foundation level, you can then transfer over to the ACCA Qualification. You will be able to start your studies at Paper F4, because you can claim exemption from exams F1, F2 and F3 on the basis of completing the Diploma.
    With this qualification, you will be an attractive asset to employers. An ACCA qualification shows you’re a dedicated worker, looking to climb the ladder of success. You will now have more steering power in your career, which could also mean an increase in salary.
