Frequently Asked Questions

The first thing that you must do is register with the ACCA in the UK as a student. You have to do this by sending a form directly to them with various documents. Look here for more details

You can register with ACCA on line or by post. If you decide to register by post, we can send you ACCA Registration Form. Contact us where you want the form to be posted.

No - you have to complete the Registration Form yourself. Therefore when you have completed the ACCA Registration Form and gathered all necessary documents, send them to the ACCA office in the UK.
If you have any problems when you are completing the form then please do email us and we will help you.

You have to send two passport sized photographs, a photocopy of the details page of your passport, a photocopy of your university diploma, and an official list of the examinations you have taken at university. In addition they will need translations of the university documents if they are not in English. Please note that they do not require notarised copies - ordinary photocopies are enough.

They must receive the form by 31 December if you wish to take examinations in June, and by 15 August if you wish to take the exams in December. ACCA will never accept forms that arrive late.

Please remember the sooner you send the form the better because it does take several weeks for them to process it, and if you leave it until the last day it is likely to take them two months!

If you have a University Degree it is very likely that ACCA will grant you exemptions from sitting some papers. However, it is the ACCA that decide this (which is why you have to send a list of examinations you have taken at university. Only examinations - they do not count just attending a course.)
When you have received a reply from the ACCA you will know which examinations you have to take.

It is not compulsory to attend courses, however it does greatly help your chances of success.

If you are understanding this website, then the answer is probably yes. You should however realise that all the teaching, study materials and exams are in the English language. Do not worry  too much about the quality of your written English - you will not be marked on your knowledge of grammar (grammar in not taught in UK schools!).

The examinations are held in Riga. They are organised by the Baltic Council for International Education, who chooses the location. They are usually in one of the large hotels.

You can sit a maximum of 4 exams. Most students attempt 2 or 3 papers every 6 months.

Class sizes vary between approximately 10 and 30 students, depending on the subject.

All courses start at 9.00 and finish at 17.00. There is a lunch break from 12.30 to 13.30. and also a short break for refreshment each morning and afternoon.

The only book that you need is the BPP Study Text for each paper (which we supply). These are without doubt the best text books for the ACCA examinations and cover the whole syllabus. If you wish to do extra reading then you can find the reading list on this website, but you do not need to do so.

We issue invoices immediately after each course and do not ask for any payment in advance. We do obviously expect any outstanding invoice to be paid before allowing you to attend any further parts of the course.

The courses are held in the centre of Riga, in the Riga Business School, Skolas iela 11.
