Hi Luxian

24 February, 2022 16:07

Are you a graduate, or a business apprentice?

24 February, 2022 16:07

Hi Lucy, I am a graduate.

24 February, 2022 16:11

But I am also a assurance apprentice who is going to have aca/CA exam

24 February, 2022 16:12

For the ACA qualification as an assurance graduate, you will do most of the exams in the first year

24 February, 2022 16:13

Great! Hopefully any exact numbers? Can we decide how many exam to take for each year or does any specific numbers of exam is requested by EY?

24 February, 2022 16:15

You will do roughly 9 exams in first year, 3 in second year and 3 in third year, so 15 in total

Lovely! Thank you Lucy! : )

Would the exemptions I have earned whilst completing my degree mitigate some of these exams?

24 February, 2022 16:27

If you have exemptions from your degree, EY will show you how to apply for these exemptions via ICAEW :)

Could you answer the same question regarding consulting please?

24 February, 2022 16:30

I was told I would be firstly completing my CFAB qualification, do you have any details regarding the length of time this qualification would take and if I would have to first complete this before I embark on my ICAEW qualifications?

24 February, 2022 16:31

I believe about 3 years

24 February, 2022 16:42

Would I be doing both CFAB and ICAEW simultaneously then?

24 February, 2022 16:47

CFAB will be what you start with

24 February, 2022 16:49

Thanks!
