The notes and questions are original and written for this site.
The ACCA Qualification at a glance

- To qualify you also need at least 36 months of relevant practical experience. There is no time limit on Applied Knowledge and Applied Skills. Once you pass your first Strategic Professional exam, you have seven years to pass the rest.
- Applied Knowledge exams are two-hour computer-based exams with a pass mark of 50 percent.
The qualification is being redesigned. The new levels are Knowledge, Expertise and Strategic Professional. The Knowledge exams start in July 2027 and the Expertise exams in September 2027. See what changes and when.
This site is independent and is not part of ACCA. Always check ACCA's own documents for the exam you are taking. The colours on the ACCA pages are only a visual cue.
