Hi Everybody,
I am trying to find out more information about the Ethics and Professional Skills Module. Any clarifications would be welcome especially with regards to whether this module is done directly through ACCA and not through a tuition provider and also do ACCA also provide the study material.
Thank you
June 7, 2019 at 10:32 am #519569Yes, it is done directly through ACCA. It’s an e-learning course with several modules, and tests you must pass to successfully complete it. There is no study material and no tuition providers, as the material is all contained within the online course.
June 7, 2019 at 1:06 pm #519591Thank you so much for the clarification

January 6, 2020 at 3:24 pm #556952Hello.
Please can you advise if there any expiration time or deadlines for this module to be completed, once you signed (paid)/ started it.
Thank you in advance.
January 6, 2020 at 4:44 pm #556962It is a one-off cost. There is no specified deadline and hence it does not have an expiry. HOWEVER:
– you are strongly advised to complete it before attempting ANY of the Strategic Professional exams;
– it must be completed before applying for membership;
– ACCA can add to the EPSM at any time so any unnecessarily long delay could result in having to complete additional units.See other FAQs here https://www.accaglobal.com/uk/en/help/faq-ethics.html#When-should-I-complete-EPSM?
January 14, 2020 at 8:59 pm #558696can i complete this module along with Foundations in Professionalism as a foundation student? i have studied FA1 Previously.
January 15, 2020 at 7:47 am #558732They are different things – the one for the Foundation qualification is free – EPSM for the “full” ACCA qualification has to be paid for. A student can only access the module in the qualification that they are signed up to. So if you were to transfer from Foundation qualification to ACCA, you would be expected to work through EPSM before sitting any of the Strategic Professional exams.

April 8, 2020 at 7:17 am #566802See here https://www.accaglobal.com/uk/en/help/faq-ethics.html#When-should-I-complete-EPSM the question “Is there an exam I need to complete as part of EPSM?”
It says “There are a series of tests throughout the module and the final unit of the module is an assessment which you will need to pass. If you don’t pass first time, then you will get feedback and you can try again until you are successful …”
This “module” is an online course which you can do at your own pace from wherever you like. Your progress through the module will be saved so whenever you go back to it you can start from where you left off.
April 17, 2020 at 2:12 pm #568593can I do it after having only completed Law and Performance Management of the Applied Skills tests?
April 17, 2020 at 2:44 pm #568609That is really too soon – I suggest you wait until you are eligible to enter for a strategic professional exam. Otherwise you won’t be ready to benefit from it. Hope that makes sense!
April 21, 2020 at 1:28 pm #568878thanks for your help!
