Rules and regulations,exam result

The disciplinary procedures cover matters such as professional misconduct, misconduct in exams and breaches of regulations which include any actions likely to bring discredit to you, ACCA, or the accountancy profession.




The rules governing disciplinary procedures for students (and members) are set out in ACCA’s Bye-laws and Regulations. All registered students are bound by these Bye-laws and Regulations.



If you wish to make further enquiries about matters which may be subject to disciplinary procedures, please write to our Professional Conduct Department at our London office in the UK. ACCA’s Rulebook, which contains the Bye-laws and Regulations, is available for reading online, or at ACCA offices.



Principles related to misconduct in examinations are reproduced here for easy reference.


Exam results

ACCA's exam sessions take place over an eight-day period in June and December, with one exam scheduled each day. Our exams are held at the same time throughout the world to ensure maximum security; which involves operating over five separate time zones. We also take into account local time differences.
