Certified Accounting Technician (CAT) Entry Requirements & Exemptions |
A minimum of 1 paper and a maximum of 4 can be taken from two consecutive levels in the order specified, except for the optional papers, C3 - C6 which may be taken in any order. All examination passes will be retained and you can choose to change your optional papers if you wish. Examinations can be attempted twice a year in June and December. Certificates are awarded on completion of Level B and Level C examinations, as well as on completion of both your examination and practical experience requirement. COMPUTER BASED EXAMINATIONS It is possible to sit the Level A by computer based examinations. These examinations can in fact be taken prior to registering with ACCA, and are available outside of the set examination sessions of June and December. The computer based examinations can be taken at ACCA approved Computer Examination Centres. Through this route, you can receive your results instantly on conclusion of the examinations and thereafter register as an Accounting Technician Scheme student. From April 2001, you can also sit the Level B examinations by computer based examinations. You must be a registered student in order to sit the examinations and they must be taken at ACCA approved Computer Examination centres. However, the examinations are available more frequently than the normal June and December examination sittings and will allow successful students to progress at a faster pace through the examinations.
