About
Each year the syllabus and the learning materials are reviewed and approved by our examiners. The learning materials provide clear guidance on the way in which the syllabus learning outcomes are tested in the exams. We therefore recommend that you use the up to date editions to study for the respective exams (e.g. use the 2025 edition to study for exams in 2025), as these will reflect any changes made within the syllabus, learning outcomes and the way in which you are assessed.
Syllabus
We provide you with a 'clean' version of the syllabus, as well as one showing what changes have been made from the previous year. Please download these below.

Buying the learning materials
All ICAEW Learning Materials are digital only and can be bought from the ICAEW Bookstore, either by you to distribute to your students or by the students themselves.
While the links to redeem the learning materials will be emailed from digital.learningmaterials@icaew.com, ICAEW are unable to send or resend these emails to you or your students.
The price of learning materials varies depending on modules:
New development: Archiving learning groups on the bookstore.
To easily access groups that are in daily use, you may choose to archive groups that are no longer active. See here for more information.
Please see the step by step guide, for how to order the materials and distribute to your students.
Learning material feedback
We are keen to receive feedback from tutors on the learning materials. If you have any feedback, please send your comments to acafeedback@icaew.com.
More information on the learning materials can be found on the student page, including an overview of the materials, how to order them and their cost.
As part of the application process to become an ICAEW Partner in Learning, all Professional Education Providers have confirmed that their students will have their own copy of the official ICAEW learning materials.
