The Foundation in Accountancy (FIA) program allows School students to begin their ACCA journey while still in school.

You can start your journey towards ACCA membership with the Foundation level qualifications – referred to collectively as ‘Foundations in Accountancy’.

By completing FIA, you will have completed the first of three levels of the ACCA.

According to studies, students who join in ACCA at the foundation level have a good foundation in accountancy and Economics, which aids them in passing the ACCA exam on the first attempt and also helping them to achieve high grades in school.

Students who begin ACCA through FIA early in school have the possibility to become fully qualified Chartered Accountants (ACCA) at a young age, perhaps even before graduating.

A candidate can join FIA without meeting any minimal qualifications, and after completing the FBT, FMA, and FFA, they will be transferred to ACCA and will be exempted from the knowledge level (3 papers).

What are the entry requirements for the ACCA Qualification?

The minimum entry requirements for the ACCA Qualification are:
Two A-Levels and three GCSEs (or their equivalent). These need to be in five separate subjects including English and maths.
To check if your qualifications meet our minimum entry requirements, please check the minimum entrance requirements database.

What are the entry requirements for Foundation-level?

There are no minimum entry requirements – you can start at any level. However, we strongly recommend you start at the ACCA Diploma in Financial and Management Accounting (RQF Level 2) if you have no formal qualifications, especially if it has been a while since you completed any studies.
This is because students who start at the ACCA Diploma in Financial and Management Accounting (RQF Level 2) and work their way through the Foundation level-qualifications perform better in the higher level exams.
