Course description
ACCA Strategic Business Leader (Weekend course, June 2019)
Strategic Professional Essentials
ACCA have recently redesigned the Professional level (consisting of Essentials and Options subjects) to create the Strategic Professional level.
There are four exam sessions per year. You can sit a maximum of four exams at each session, and a maximum of eight distinct exams each calendar year.You can overlap with subjects on Applied Skills as long as the Applied Skills level is being completed. However, there are no exemptions available for the Strategic Professional Essentials level so all subjects must be passed to continue with your studies. Strategic Professional subjects can be attempted in any order so you do not have to sit Essentials before Options. In fact we would recommend you leave Strategic Business Leader (SBL) until later in your studies.
These are Paper Based Exams (PBEs) which are sat at ACCA centres, booked directly with ACCA.
ACCA and Kaplan advise you to take the external ethics exam, Ethics and Professional Skills, before you sit any exams on Strategic Professional.
Please note: dates and course fees may vary depending on chosen exam sitting and venue. Please check Kaplan's website for full details.
