How will the new qualification be introduced? Will it be phased in alongside the existing scheme?
The two exam syllabuses will not run together. The last sitting of the current scheme exams will be June 2007 and the first sitting of the new exams will be December 2007. Registered students were sent exam conversion notices in February 2006. Conversion notices will be sent again in August 2006 and February 2007, based on results to date. In August 2007 all current students will be converted to the new ACCA Qualification and advised of the papers they will be required to complete on the new syllabus.
