In order to sit the ACPA exams you must be registered with ACPA. This is to ensure that we can maintain your Qualification Progress and Records (QPR) on your behalf, in-line with the Ofqual Regulatory Requirements. There are two ways to access the ACPA Qualification Framework; either as a Non-Member Student or as a Member. The table below describes the current examination fees payable. Members and Non-Members applying for exemption from exams will be required to pay an exemption fee, which corresponds to the exam fee as appropriate.

Planning the cost of your qualifications...
All fees are reviewed annually, and any changes to published fees will be made in January of each year. In order to assist you to plan your qualification costs we recommend that you pay for exam fees in advance. Exam fees paid for will not be subject to change or any surcharge. Exam fees not paid for in advance are liable to normal annual increases, and in such cases we would recommend that you factor into your planned costs an uplift of 20%pa in order to ensure that you budget prudently for the total cost of your qualifications.
