About FIA

FIA is the ideal way to gain an understanding of how business finance works and to open up new career possibilities – both in finance and beyond.

This group of qualifications builds progressively to give you fluency in the language of business: finance. You can study any one, or all of the FIA qualifications at your own pace in your own time.

The FIA qualifications include:  

• ACCA Diploma in Financial and Management Accounting (RQF Level 2)
• ACCA Diploma in Financial and Management Accounting (RQF Level 3)
• ACCA Diploma in Accounting and Business (RQF Level 4)
• Certified Accounting Technician (CAT) Qualification

Also available as standalone certificates:

• ACCA Certificate in Audit (RQF Level 4)
• ACCA Certificate in Taxation (RQF Level 4)
• ACCA Certificate in Financial Management (RQF Level 4)

Available in Bangladesh and Pakistan:

• The Foundation Diploma

To gain any of the diplomas or the CAT Qualification, you’ll also need to complete our Foundations in Professionalism module. This will give you an understanding of the behaviours and responsibilities associated with being a finance professional. You will only have to do this module once, regardless of how many FIA qualifications you take.

And, if you decide that you have a flair for finance and want to make it your career, our FIA qualifications will put you on a fast track to the prestigious full ACCA Qualification – globally recognised as the gold standard for finance and accounting professionals.
