Coventry University: Professional Accountancy

Summary

As a student with prior accounting and finance experience, possibly with a degree in the discipline or maybe having passed the Fundamentals level of ACCA through study or the eligibility of exemptions, you may now be ready for the next step and progression in your accounting career. By successfully completing this course you will be awarded a post-graduate award with a strong emphasis on research and decision-making. This course can also help you to prepare for the Strategic Professional level of the globally-recognised ACCA qualification, which you may wish to undertake this following successful completion of this course.

The School of Economics, Finance and Accounting at Coventry University has been awarded the GOLD Approved Learning Partner award for the teaching and delivery of ACCA, which means we have met a range of performance targets and which we believe makes Coventry University a great place to prepare for ACCA exams.

There is also the opportunity for students who have already passed papers at the ACCA Strategic Professional level to be exempted from certain modules thus allowing a fast-track completion of the Masters qualification. The ACCA professional papers which provide exemptions, and which modules they provide exemptions from, are listed below;

+ If you have successfully completed the ACCA Strategic Business Leader (SBL) paper, you will be exempted from the Strategic International Organisation Management module.
