    How your study will work

    The complete ACCA qualification is broken down into three stages

    Stage one is Fundamental Applied Knowledge and includes three modules: Accountant in Business, Management Accounting and Finance Accounting.

    Stage two is Fundamental Applied Skills

    and includes six modules: Corporate and Business Law, Performance Management, Taxation, Finance Reporting, Audit and Assurance and Finance Management.

    Stage three is Strategic Professional and includes four modules. The first two (Strategic Business Leader and Business Reporting) are compulsory. The second two modules can be chosen from Strategic Financial Management, Advanced Performance Management or Audit and Assurance.

    To complete ACCA, you must complete all 13 modules. These can be studied as a complete package, or individually, as detailed below.

    But thanks to our flexible distance learning approach, you’ll be able to manage your study around your schedule, setting targets and deadlines that are right for you.

    You can choose to access your materials easily online, or receive them securely by post. And in both cases you’ll receive full unlimted e-mail support from an experienced tutor who is there to help guide you through the qualification.

    To complete this qualification successfully, you’ll be required to complete an exam at the end of each module, but your progress will be tracked throughout the course by a combination of self-assessment exercises and tutor-monitored study.

    You’ll also have access to our Learner Services Team for any additional guidance you might require.
