Corporate and Business Law (Global Variant)

Entry requirements

The ACCA Applied Knowledge is the first level of the ACCA Professional Qualification. To gain entry to this course you must have either a Senior Certificate with passes in English and Maths, a National Senior Certificate with 40% or higher, a Damelin Diploma or a Matriculation to University.

How it Works

Every month we have an Online Course starting, led by a UK tutor and attended by students globally. You and your classmates will follow a fast-paced schedule and work your way through a series of video lectures, online practice questions and debriefs and assessments, designed to get you exam ready. Programme durations vary and you can choose between 6, 8, 10 and 13 week long programmes, depending on your own availability and time commitments. Video lectures cover 100% of the syllabus, are recordings of BPP's top lecturers and can be downloaded to your mobile phone and viewed offline.

You can access the resources up to 2 weeks prior to the start date and use the time to browse around and explore the online platform. The start date is the date the tutor joins and when your assessment submission schedule kicks in. You will have access to your tutor, your classmates and your online resources for 6 months from the course start date or up to your exam date for sitting-based exams. Hard copy material is included (eBooks if you selected this option).

Exams and sittings

Each exam is a 2hr computer based exam (CBE). The exams are on demand and can be sat at any time at an ACCA CBE centre or taken via the ACCA Remote Exam option. CBEs are offered for Global and UK variants only.

CBEs are computer marked, so as soon as you complete your exam you will receive a result on your screen. Your result will be transferred to your myACCA account within 72 hours.
