Get started with your ACCA Experience goals
Working towards ACCA membership? The Practical Experience Requirement (PER) is an important part of your journey. It’s designed to help you build the real-world skills you’ll need for a successful career in finance or accounting.
To complete PER, you’ll need to:
Gain 36 months of relevant work experience in an accounting or finance role
Achieve nine performance objectives that show your skills and professional behaviour at work
These objectives help you grow in your role and show that you’re ready to become a qualified ACCA member.
