Hi Everyone,
I dont know how true it is..but i heard somewhere that ACCA will have 4 attempts a year starting from January 2014 and skill papers will be CBEs…
Is it true ?
and if it is can anyone give me a source of the news ?December 5, 2013 at 11:05 pm #150902i hope so !
December 5, 2013 at 11:12 pm #150907That would be awesome! Although still no official information from ACCA even they don’t mention it…
Is it possible they will introduce this approach just like that?
December 6, 2013 at 2:20 pm #151080I read it myself in one of the PQ magazines this year, and so i called ACCA. The person I spoke to sounded clueless and so left me on hold for quite a while and came back advising that he’s double checked and thinks (note, he wasnt certain) that it is something in the pipeline but they haven’t been advised of such and he confessed hearing of it for the first time from me.
i expressed how surprised i was that something that crucial was made public and neither he nor his manager could give a more definitive answer.
anyway, long story short, the head of ACCA exam is indeed considering the possibility of this, but i don’t think she intends for this to take off at the start of 2014 but at the latter part of it.
Like you guys, i feel it will be such an awesome development for all ACCA student subscribers. i for one will be immensely advantaged as i will stop sitting 3 papers in one go with slimmer chances of passing all, but instead will spread it out effectively within the year whilst increasing my chances of passing.
when ACCA effects this development, it will prove beyond doubt that the body is truly interested in the success of its candidates, and we will love them forever! 🙂

I also read about it in PQ a few months ago, just found a follow up from October. Four sittings a year would definitely help! 🙂The articles from PQ can be found here
