Hello,
I’ve recently passed my final examination. I’ve also got the PER & Ethics module.
I was wondering if you could share your experience on:
1) Whether your employers reimburse you the membership fee?
2) What do you get for the fee that you pay (e.g. trainings, webinars, etc.)?I’m looking for a way to convince my employer that it is worth reimbursing my membership fee as this will add value and give me access to resources not available otherwise. So is there any members-only content? Any trainings/webinars/resources available to members?
Looing forward to your replies!
Thanks!
Hi
My employer reimburses our membership fee however if they don’t then you’re entitled to claim tax relief for it as it’s classed as an employment related expense.
As a member you have to complete CPD and as such ACCA offer webinars to help with this.
Thanks, Beth. Unfortunately, I’m not in the UK so I won’t be able to claim any relief.
It’s good to know that they offer webinars for CPD support, I hope that this would be enough. Are those CPD courses paid?
Also, do you know if I can ask ACCA for an invoice to be issued to my employer or I need to ask their official partners here for an invoice?
Please see here the landing page for all things CPD https://www.accaglobal.com/gb/en/member/cpd.html
As a member you will received e-mails about professional courses and events – some pay for (e.g. with external providers) and some free (to members).
I think you should should maintain your account through myACCA and you will be able to download/print a statement of your account to show your employer that you have paid if they agree to reimburse.
Thank you, Kim! I will definitely use the source provided.
So far, my employer received invoices from ACCA official partner here. However, I was wondering if there’s another way.
I think an employer paying exam fees is different – and I wouldn’t know of other arrangements for membership fees but I think if you want to be assured that membership fees have been paid you pay yourself.
