Credit for prior learning for ICAI members

As a member of the ICAI and an accounting professional you are entitled to advanced credit arrangements with the ICAEW.

Applying for credit for prior learning

To apply for credits, you must register with us and advise us within your application form of your post qualification experience (work experience) so that we can assess which examinations you will need to take.

Post qualification experience (work experience)

Your two years' post qualification experience must be certified by your current (and if appropriate, past) employer as meeting the learning outcomes of the ICAEW's Technical Integration Business Change and Technical Integration Business Reporting papers.

Learning outcomes

To assess this, please review the learning outcomes (PDF 62kb/9 pages). If you are employed, you will need to ask your employer to review these documents before confirming within your letter of employment confirmation that you have covered ALL of these outcomes in your period of employment. If your employer does not clearly state that you have met all of the learning outcomes, your application for credit for the two technical integration papers could be refused.

Sole practitioners

ICAI members who are sole practitioners may self-certify that their post-qualification experience meets the aims and learning outcomes of these papers.
