Transferring from CAT to ACCA
The ACCA Qualification is your passport to reaching the highest levels in any organisation – and as a CAT graduate you have the knowledge, skills and practical experience to get off to a flying start.
You will be automatically transferred to the ACCA Qualification register when you have successfully completed your CAT exams, unless you chose not to select this option when you originally registered as a CAT student. You will be awarded exemption from the Knowledge module of the Fundamentals Level (F1, F2 and F3) and will not be charged an additional registration fee or exemption fees.
You can still opt in for automatic transfer to the ACCA Qualification providing that you put your request in writing to ACCA Connect before sitting your final CAT exams. If you did not opt for an automatic transfer to the ACCA Qualification and wish to continue with the ACCA Qualification exams, you will need to submit an ACCA Qualification registration form and pay the relevant registration fee.
Once transferred to the ACCA Qualification register, you will be subject to the Bye Laws, rules and regulations applicable to ACCA Qualification students, details of which will be sent to you on transfer.
Passing the remaining ACCA Qualification exams and gaining three year’s relevant experience will lead to ACCA membership. The experience you have already demonstrated to become a Certified Accounting Technician will count towards the work experience you need for ACCA membership.
