Yes, provided that the work experience is of a sufficient breadth and depth to contribute towards achieving the minimum competence requirements and that it is properly supervised. Work experience gained on a part-time basis can only count towards the practical experience requirements on a pro-rata basis. Therefore, wherever possible, it is advisable to obtain full-time work experience that is relevant, supervised and meets the Certified Accounting Technician competence requirements. As a guideline, ACCA considers full-time work experience to be 35 hours per week. 1,540 hours of part-time work equates to one year of full-time work experience.
