ICAEW - Advanced Stage Module for ICAP Members
Friday, September 25, 2009
The Advanced Stage consists of two Technical papers and a Case Study. Throughout the process you will be working and therefore able to apply your new skills direct in the workplace.
About the Advanced Stage
Students are encouraged to include relevant practical examples in your examination work from the outset, but it is in the Advanced Stage that you really focus on the technical and strategic skills needed to become a fully qualified ACA.
Skills needed
- Adopt a multi-disciplinary approach and demonstrate your ability to use judgement as well as highlight your technical skills.
- Apply classroom learning to the practical issues facing organisations (the IPD framework will help you do this).
- Consider genuine problems and come up with real-life solutions that manage both finance and risk.
- Good communication skills, business awareness, professional judgement and the application of technical accounting knowledge.
Breakdown of the Advanced Stage modules
1.Technical integration - Business Reporting
Financial and corporate reporting and accounting, audit and assurance, taxation, law and ethics. Apply technical knowledge and professional judgement to business scenarios to determine compliance solutions and a consideration of the alternatives.
2. Technical integration - Business Change
Demonstrate your understanding, planning skills and ability to give advice. Analyse and interpret internal and external financial and non-financial information covering taxation and law, business strategy, financial management, performance management and costing, financial and corporate reporting and accounting, audit and assurance and your grasp of ethics.
3. Case Study
Test your professional skills in the context of a specific business issue. Be challenged on multiple areas of the syllabus. The examination combines information given to candidates beforehand and impact information given on the day.
How long are the exams?
The Technical papers last 3.5 hours each. The Case Study lasts 4 hours.

Associate PRM Certificate Exam Registration
The Associate Professional Risk Manager (Associate PRM) is a new PRMIA certificate program intended for staff entering the risk management profession, or those who interface with risk management disciplines on a regular basis, such as auditing, accounting, legal, and systems development personnel who want to understand fundamental risk management methods and practices. Designed to be mathematically and theoretically less detailed than the Professional Risk Manager (PRM™) certification, the new program will cover the core concepts allowing non-specialists to interpret risk management information and reports, make critical assessments and evaluate the implications and the limitations of such results.
Only successful candidates of the PRM designation are entitled to use the PRM title. Associate PRM members will receive a certificate but will not be entitled to use the PRM title.
