Exams

Students are required to complete 2 levels, Fundamentals and Professional. These comprise of 16 papers, 14 of which you are required to pass (unless you receive exemptions from any papers).

Ethics

Students are required to complete an online ethics module. It is compulsory for students who joined ACCA from 1st January 2007 onwards and recommended for all other students. ACCA will advise all students how to complete this module, which should normally be done when studying paper P1 Professional Accountant in the Essentials Module.

You will be asked to provide ACCA with an online annual return to show the experience you have achieved during the preceding year.
