The Association of Chartered Certified Accountants - ACCA

The ACCA Continuing Professional Development (CPD) Scheme, ACCA Realise, affects all ACCA members unless fully retired. CPD became compulsory for all members from 1st January 2007 and members may meet CPD requirements through a unit scheme approach.

AssistKD's Business Analysis courses provide verifiable evidence of CPD. The verifiable hours are as follows:

• Business Analysis Essentials: 24 hours
• Requirements Engineering: 24 hours
• Organisational Context: 16 hours
• Modelling Business Processes: 16 hours

Each of these AssistKD courses culminates in a one hour open-book examination. Successful candidates will not only gain their CPD requirements, but also be awarded a certificate from the Information Systems Examining Board (ISEB) of the British Computer Society (BCS).

These certificates can be converted into a Diploma in Business Analysis if the candidate successfully completes an oral examination.
