hi sir, I am taking SBL in September 2023 and I heard there will be huge change to the syllabus? If so, will the video lectures, notes and other material from previous exams still be valid?

Hi. There are no huge changes in the syllabus but there are major changes to the exam. See here: https://www.accaglobal.com/gb/en/student/exam-entry-and-administration/about-our-exams/changes-to-sbl---sept-23.html In summary: 1 There will be pre-seen material released 2 weeks before the exam. This will give the background information about the organisation in the case study. 2 The time for the exam will fall from 4 hours to 3 hours 15 minutes. 3 The exam will now have three compulsory tasks, with each task having a varying number of parts and total marks. Because the syllabus has only minor changes our notes will not change much so you are safe studying the current notes.
