Also what are the professional exams like? How does EY help school leavers cope with these sorts of examinations?

They are broken down over periods of time so that it's not too stressful for you. We also give you time off work to go to college to learn the theory you will be tested on a well as study leave just before each exam. There is alot of support n guidance. You have a councilor, manager and buddy who are all there to support you, as well as the rest of your year group and team

How would it compare to your typical school class and the ways of learning. Also what are the modules like in the different courses, I am looking at Tax and/or Assurance

Well, you are at work so you are not at school your time is divided between going to college to learn the theory and study towards your exams and the rest is spent doing the job practically. They are all fairly similar there will be a few modules that vary between service lines

Hi Liam, thought I would chip in as I am doing my ACA exams now.

You do 6 exams to get the CFAB - which is also the first tier of exams for ACA,
I think in total you do 15 exams.

They aren't easy but you get support through them - and the hard work reaps its reward once you're a chartered accountant
