Progression through the syllabus

To satisfy the exam requirements which are necessary to become an ACCA member, students must pass or be exempted from all nine exams in the Fundamentals level, pass all three exams in the Essentials module, and successfully complete two Options module exams in Professional level. Under the new qualification, there is no requirement for students to sit and/or pass any of the exams together, including the three Essentials module exams in the Professional level.

Students are expected to study each module – Knowledge, Skills, Essentials and Options – in order. Students may attempt a maximum of four exams at any one sitting. Papers may be attempted from different modules at the same sitting as long as the modules are attempted in order. Students may vary the order they attempt exams within each module but they may not vary the order of the modules. However, ACCA strongly recommends that papers within a module are taken in order.
