I know that for CIMA you have to have done all units, including your project, and received your certificate before they will grant you exemptions.

Not too sure about ACCA but i should imagine its all the same, you haven't realy completed the level until you get your certificate.

I can still get my certificate as there options and you only need to do 2 which i have!

Our tutors told us we had to do all units to get exemptions from ACA/ACCA/CIMA, sorry.
Our tutors were not the best so they maybe wrong.
I suggest having a look at the ACCA website
http://www.accaglobal.com/

It should tell you there or possibly contact them and ask.

I can confirm that to get exemptions from F1, 2 and 3 of ACCA you only need to have completed technician, it doesn't matter which optional units you have done.

I was under the impression that you gained exemption by passing all the units that you were listed to take, usually only 2 options. Not that you had to do all choice levels as well.


I think bluewednesday is right I dont think you have to do everything on all units in tech just pass what you have to.

After completing AAT Technician you will be exempt from these ACA Exams:

• Business and Finance
• Management Information

If you pass Unit 11 (Industry, Practice and Commerece) you will be exempt from

• Accounting

If you pass Unit 17 (Implementing Audit Procedures) you will be exempt from

• Assurance

And if you pass both Units 18 (Business Tax) and Unit 19 (Personal Tax) you will gain exemptions from

• Principles of Taxation

Therefore if you do three of the four optional papers at AAT (there is no exemption for Unit 15 CMCC) you will have 5 less exams to sit. This only leaves one exam at the knowledge level.

Also, you can sit a Financial Accounts top-up paper that will mean you don't have to sit the full Financial Accounting paper at the application level.

I hope this helps; more information can be found at http://www.icaew.com/index.cfm?route=150507
