    Hello,

    I had registered for the EPSM during the middle of March and yet Unit 8 has the “review 5 peers assessments” in it. However, the website does not allow me to download any peer assessments and nothing happens when I click on the button to download a peer assessment and it also still says that my assessment is under review. It has been more than a week and this is still the case where I cannot download any peer assessment.

    Is there anything I can do about this?

    As peer assessment was launched less than 3 weeks ago I imagine the process will take a while to get up to speed – assessments cannot be available to review until a sufficient number have been submitted. Looking at the information on page 04 of the assessment pdf it does not in any case sound like a speedy process – “You will be given a generous time limit to complete your marking…. When you have marked all five peer presentations, you will be asked to wait for your own result.”

    I can only suggest that you contact ACCA directly https://www.accaglobal.com/hk/en/footer-toolbar/contact-us.html

    I am sure it would be helpful to your fellow students if you would keep us posted on developments.

    @dalyabaqi Hi. I have recently been doing the Ethics module with the new update so I thought I should share my experience so that you know you are not going through this alone. After I submitted my ppt for peer review, I had no instruction on what to do next for a few days. I had contacted ACCA through the link Kim Smith shared.

    Later, I had instructions under ‘Myprogress’ which wanted me to assess 5 other student’s assessments, while my progress to do anything else in the module was locked for peer review. When I downloaded the assessment for review, I couldn’t open it to review and I had 60 minutes to ‘submit the scores’. After the 60 minutes elapsed, I had another assessment to be downloaded to review, which i was able to open and assess. After I had submitted scores for five other assessments, I was done. The next phase was me just waiting for my assessment to be reviewed by other students, where my progress was locked for over a week. However I emailed ACCA because I thought there was an error.

    Today morning when I checked I had a message saying I had scored enough to pass the peer review assessment and move on. There are two more little assessments to complete the Unit.
    At the moment I am currently facing a challenge where even though i have complete the module and passed the tests, the “How did you do” results section won’t unlock. The last two units are locked too. I have contacted ACCA directly once more and I am waiting for a solution.

    Hope this helps! 🙂

    There is no one way to presenting slides and it depends on your target audience. There are hundreds of examples you can look at on the internet for inspiration (e.g. browse ACCA presentation powerpoint):

    Compare this one targeted at school leavers (has only one sentence/phrase per slide) https://www.accaglobal.com/content/dam/acca/gb/graduates/ACCA_Members_Presentation_to_School_Leavers.ppt with this one aimed at an ACCA members (i.e. qualified professionals) audience https://www.accaglobal.com/content/dam/ACCA_Global/Members/Advocacy/resources/ACCA-seven-quotients.pptx

    And here’s an ACCA article https://www.accaglobal.com/uk/en/student/sa/professional-skills/how-to-present-with-impact.html

    And you could think about the 00s of slides in the EPSM course too!

    could I please know how many slides you presented? The question says two presentation slides on strategic options for turnaround. Is 2 enough?

    See for example the requirement for two presentation slides in SBL Specimen Exam 2 available here https://www.accaglobal.com/ie/en/student/exam-support-resources/professional-exams-study-resources/strategic-business-leader.html

    If two is asked for – that is what is required!

    After submitting the presentation how can we review the presentation of other peers. Please help as I had submitted my presentation but after that it’s saying that please return to my progress and after going to that part no presentation is shown for review.

    @sanjay1992 – if not addressed by the first three posts on this thread (essentially, you should expect to wait) – I suggest that you contact ACCA directly https://www.accaglobal.com/hk/en/footer-toolbar/contact-us.html

    Hi
    I recently completed the 7 modules and came to the Peer Assessment. I am unable to decide what to write in it. I know how to make a presentation. I know that we have to make a two slides presentation. But don’t know what exactly is the presentation about. Can you please guide me what do we have to create the presentation for.
    Thank you

    @muskans – if you read in the module it should concern Telford. As a tutor I do not have access to the assessment module so I am sorry, I cannot tell you the precise wording of the requirement.

    Hi
    I was not asking for the the precise wording of the requirement. I just wanted to know the topic on which we have to make the ppt.
    In the video it was told that we have to make presentation with notes for the “strategic options that the committee may have identified.”
    What options are they referring to here.
    We are not the actual CEO right I am just not getting how can we frame the options which should be taken to the next meeting.
    Can you please explain.

    @muskans – as a tutor I have access only to Units 1-7 so I cannot listen to the video. I can only suggest that you review/listen to whatever is in the unit looking to try and identify – or wait for someone else to contribute to this post. I cannot explain what I cannot refer to.

    Hi @Nawwar Can you please help me with what topic do we have to make the presentation on. I don’t want the content of the presentation, I just wanna know what is the presentation supposed to be about. I did watch the module again but could not get it exactly. Please if any body can help me with it.
    Thank you
