Thinking about studying ICAEW?

The ICAEW Chartered Accountant qualification, the ACA, is highly respected and valued in businesses around the world as one of the most advanced professional qualifications available.

This qualification will require you to complete at least three years of on-the-job training while passing a series of exams. The ACA is divided into four key elements, which will provide you with a combination of finance knowledge, accountancy skills, and real world business experience. They are:

Practical work experience in a relevant area (such as accounting, audit, tax, financial management or insolvency) with an ICAEW authorised training employer

  • 15 exam modules covering a broad range of topics

  • Professional development and skills

  • Ethics and professional scepticism

We offer classroom based tuition. You’ll receive access to a dedicated Microsoft Teams platform, study texts, revision questions and cards, course notes, online access to practice mock exams, and access to all class recordings so you can go over what we’ve learned at a time that’s convenient for you.
