Hi everyone,
Has anyone here moved on to ACCA after qualifying with CIMA?
Just wondering how many exemptions you received as a fully qualified CIMA member.
I completed CIMA back in 2014, and according to the ACCA exemptions calculator, it shows 9 exemptions. The thing is, I did get a few exemptions when I started CIMA because of my degree, so I’m not sure if ACCA will still grant the full 9, or if they only count exams I actually sat and passed.
I’ve spoken to ACCA support a couple of times, but I’ve had mixed answers and am still waiting for a clear confirmation. I’m hoping to take the SBL exam in December, but the delay is eating into potential revision time and I don’t really want to start studying if I end up not getting the exemptions.
Would really appreciate it if anyone who’s been through this could share their experience.
Thanks!October 9, 2025 at 7:43 am #723061Welcome back to our forums!
The exemption calendar clearly shows exemption from the knowledge and skills exams (9 exams in total) so I suggest you should start studying!
