-Key Facts and Trends in the Accountancy Profession (Posted Thursday 20th June 2013) http://tiny.cc/fqezyw - ACCA launches customer service charter (Posted Thursday 20th June 2013) http://tiny.cc/vqezyw - Institute Merger (Posted Thursday 20th June 2013) http://tiny.cc/krezyw - Our 'Find a book-keeper Directory' - Book-keepers wishing to be included in the BKN 'Find a book-keeper Directory' are advised to check out BKN Full Membership, which includes a wide variety of resources and costs just £24 per year. http://www.book-keepers.net/join-us.
Some really interesting facts and figures burried in there.
For example, around 20% of ICAEW income is from disciplinary actions against its own members
Around 50% of ACCA income is from exams and education.
UK ACCA membership only accounts for around 20% of total membership
ACCA student numbers are predominantly made up of those who have passed all of the exams but not applied for membership so are not really students at all.
Also interesting that AIA which is predominantly an overseas qualification is in but neither AAT or IFA are considered accountancy bodies so we get no mention of their numbers.
Some really interesting facts and figures on audit as well.
As I say, many thanks for the link... Certainly destroyed my mornings productivity, lol.
kind regards,
Shaun.
