3. Accreditation
by Professional / Statutory Bodies
Hong Kong Institute of Certified
Public Accountants (HKICPA)
All core and required
courses in the Professional Accounting Stream have been
accredited as a Conversion Programme of the HKICPA, offering entry to its
Qualification Programme.
Students have the
responsibility to check the syllabuses of the Associate Level Modules of the
new QP, their official transcripts of previous studies and the syllabuses of
subjects studied, to ascertain that their previous studies at the undergraduate
level are on a par with the corresponding QP modules and hence qualify for
module exemption. Otherwise, students are required to study and pass the
designated elective course(s) if they would like to enroll in the new QP and
obtain exemption of those relevant QP modules.
Only those students
who have studied and passed in the subjects with substantial coverage relevant
to Modules of the Associate Level of the new QP of HKICPA are eligible for
exemption of the Modules concerned#. The final decision rests
with the HKICPA.
# The
exemption is subject to fulfilling the requirements of HKICPA.
