The ICB said they would let us know what was in the syllabus for Level IV in September. Your running out of time ICB. The clock is ticking.

It'll be interesting to see what the syllabus includes and what difference it makes to the services a bookkeeper can offer.

I was going to bump this thread last night as I knew James from the ICB was coming back from his holiday on the 5th.

Hello all,

This could possibly be my fault as I was not here to talk about the examination process.

Have been told it should be live today/tomorrow.

Sorry for the delay, great demand we are getting for it though!

Hello,

Just had a look at the new level iv, looks an interesting set of exams, just realised that they also have a level iii legal bookkeeper one too.

Does anyone know when you can take these exams, and also what level it is equivalent too?

Interesting reading, I'm a little surprised that the Drafting Financial Statements is based around SSAP's & Frs's. I was expecting the syllabus to use IFRs's and covering IFRSSE would have been beneficial.

Hi Tony,

Agree. UK GAAP is on the way out now so by the time one would finish these studies could start it over again with IFRS and IFRSSME

Hi Attila,

Bit odd isn't it. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but can't non-listed companies already use IFRS and also Co's House / HMRC accept accounts prepared under this framework. Why not teach it now?

As you stated bud - it will have to change in time for Jan 2013 ?!?!

I agree about UK GAAP, but overall i think it looks good.

The inclusion of cashflow statements in the DFS module seems odd as these are only a requirement for medium sized companies under the companies act. These companies have to be audited which a member of the ICB can not do, so an ICB member would never have to do this in a set of financial statements.

cashflow is part of the full set of accounts in ifrssme what is for small companies so maybe this still will give you a good basis for ifrs in the future.
