ACCA (Association of Chartered Certified Accountants) is a globally recognized professional accounting qualification. Pursuing ACCA is valuable because it offers international recognition across 180+ countries, comprehensive training in all accounting aspects, flexible study options, competitive salaries, and diverse career opportunities in finance, consulting, and business management. The qualification demonstrates your expertise in accounting standards, financial management, and business ethics to employers worldwide.
Anyone with minimum educational qualifications can start ACCA. Entry requirements include two A-Levels and three GCSEs (or equivalent) in subjects including English and Mathematics or a relevant degree. Graduates with accounting-related degrees may receive exemptions from specific papers. No age limit allows professionals at any career stage to begin. If you don't meet these requirements, you can first complete ACCA's Foundations in Accountancy program to gain entry.
The ACCA qualification typically takes 3-4 years to complete when studying part-time. For full-time students, it may be completed in 2-3 years. The exact duration depends on several factors: your prior qualifications (which may provide exemptions), study mode (full-time or part-time), exam sitting frequency (quarterly exams available), and individual study pace. You have up to 10 years to complete all exams from registration, providing flexibility for working professionals to balance studies with career commitments.
ACCA consists of three levels: Applied Knowledge, Applied Skills, and Strategic Professional.
