Information about technical requirements
Our platform does not require any additional software. However, it is advisable that students have Microsoft Office installed on their computers as tutors may provide additional downloadable notes in Doc, Xlsx, PPT, and PDF formats.
Google Chrome, Firefox, Microsoft Edge, and Safari (Macintosh only) are all supported by Canvas on desktop.
Canvas has been carefully crafted to accommodate low-bandwidth environments. A minimum internet speed of 512kbps is recommended.
Information about when access to materials opens and closes
Access to all learning materials and live sessions opens in the month of intake and closes three months later. For example, if teaching starts in mid-June, access will stop in mid-September after the exams finish. Students taking Computer Based Assessments (CBE) have access for 6 months.
Learning materials consist of the following:
- Live tuition and revision sessions
- Recorded live tuition and revision sessions
- E-learning materials and resources
- Other relevant materials tutors may provide
Teaching Timetable
All courses are taught in the evening (BST), Monday through Friday. Classes typically start at 5:30 or 6:30 p.m. and run for 2-3 hours depending on the paper.
During workshops, students can speak to their tutors directly with any concerns.
Where there is a need, face-to-face revision may be offered on two weekends in London (excludes on-demand papers). If you cannot attend, you can either join the session live online or watch the recording.
Learning Expectations
We advise that you allocate nine hours of self-study per week in addition to your live classes. For the Strategic Professional exam, we advise 12 hours of self-study. Your tutors will discuss self study with you.
You will be asked to complete exam question practice (homework) throughout the session, which will be marked with feedback provided. You will also be asked to complete a time-limited exam that will also be marked with feedback.
We expect you to attend all live sessions, but if that is not possible (e.g., time zone constraints), we ask that you study using the recorded sessions provided. If you do not attend any sessions, live or recorded, then you may be removed from the course and may be deferred to the next session.
Information about Practical Experience Requirement (PER)
Studying for your ACCA exams requires you to pass them and gain practical experience that is essential to becoming a fully qualified accountant.
You must take the Ethical and Professional Skills module and gain professional experience by spending 36 months in an accounting or finance-related role.
Exam success, practical experience, and knowledge of ethics will enable you to become a successful accountant.
