The Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) is a global professional accountancy body with over 400,000 students and 140,000 members in 170 countries. The ACCA has been providing accountancy qualifications for over 100 years with the aim to offer a business-relevant, first-choice qualification to people of application, ability and ambition around the world who seek a rewarding career in accountancy, finance and management. The ACCA Qualification exam syllabus is divided into two levels; Fundamentals and Professional. The Fundamentals level is divided into two modules; Knowledge and Skills. The Knowledge module introduces you to the core areas of financial and management accounting, providing the platform from which the other technical accountancy areas will be studied in greater detail. The Skills module contains six subjects which comprehensively cover the main technical areas that any accountant, regardless of their future career aspirations, is expected to have mastered. The Professional level is divided into two modules; Essentials and Options. Both these modules have been set at an intellectual level equivalent to that expected of a student taking a Masters degree. The focus of the syllabuses at this level is to build upon the technical skills already acquired and explore more advanced professional skills, techniques and values that are required and used by the expert accountant acting in an advisory or consultancy role at a senior level. All students have to complete the three papers in the Essentials module. The Options module contains four papers, but you only need to complete two.
