Standards

Esme

Does anyone have a list of the standards we need to know for DFS?

taskey

the standards are on the main website, once you log in and look under the DFS parts, they are the Feb 2009 guidance notes.

I can also recommend Steves book. You can purchase and download immediately it from

http://www.accountancystudents.co.uk/

well worth £13.50 as it breaks each standard down in detail

Hope that helps

Ok great, is it more of a text book or revision aid?

taskey

it breaks down each standard and includes examples of how the standard is used.

I would say it's more of a revision aid, you need to know something about the standards in the first place but once you've looked through them it really helps you remember them.

Esme

Is it just about the standards or the whole of DFS?
