How many?
We can’t tell you exactly how many trainees we’ve got as it changes every 8 minutes.
We’re not bragging but
stating a fact when we say our organisation is big. ACCA is the largest and
fastest-growing global professional accountancy body. We have a network of nearly
80 offices and centres across the world. Our trainees and members can be found
in 170 countries. And we’re also the largest international professional
accountancy body in 47 markets.
But what does this mean for you?
Well, we can provide genuine specialised local knowledge, supported and delivered through a global infrastructure.
We also think big too.
Our members’ skills and values are the same wherever they are in the world. They operate to the same global professional standards of conduct and to a common global code of ethics. They have all been trained through a global qualification, examined to consistent standards around the world, achieving common levels of competence. And they complete professional development on an annual basis to a global programme, according to the skills and expertise required in their jobs. So they can work anywhere. And we encourage it. Champions of opportunity and diversity, we provide quality accountants able to fit perfectly into a global business environment.
And we are big in terms of quality and reputation. We work closely with other national accountancy bodies and professional bodies – in fact we have 50 global accountancy partnerships – so our brand is well known and respected. Our active programme of events, services, development and research at local level ensures we are relevant in the markets where our trainees and members live and work.
No wonder our membership continues to grow.
