ACCA (Association of Chartered Certified Accountants)
As the international body for professional accountants, ACCA offers you more. more
than just a good reputation. more than worldwide influence and career progress in
any organisation. ACCA offers you the world.

Qualifying with ACCA is your first step towards a successful career in accountancy,
business and finance. the breadth of the ACCA qualification makes it the perfect
platform to launch any business career, and you will have the opportunity to acquire
technical skills that employers are now demanding. Our qualification gives you the
transferable skills you need, so that in the long-term you can apply for finance roles
in any sector, in any business, anywhere in the world.

ACCA is the largest and fastest growing international accountancy body, with over
424,000 students and 147,000 members in 170 countries. studying with ACCA
allows you to build a future that is diverse, challenging and full of opportunities.

there are three equally important elements to qualifying as an ACCA accountant
- exams, practical experience and an online ethics module. the ACCA qualification
really does give you freedom, recognition and the power to choose your own career
path in accountancy, business and finance.

ACCA’s flexible approach equals freedom. internships at university can count towards the
practical experience requirements of the qualification and enhance employability. Also,
exemptions from a relevant degree means fewer exams to sit. As the contract isn’t tied
into a training contract you can take your hard work with you whenever you move jobs.
