ACCA members and future members will have a route to attaining Registered Auditor status in South Africa following accreditation of the ACCA Qualification by the country’s Independent Regulatory Board for Auditors (IRBA).
This latest step in the recognition of the qualification is the culmination of a rigorous accreditation process with the IRBA.
The announcement means that, from 1 April 2024, ACCA members with the right experience can register for IRBA’s Audit Development Programme, an 18-month audit specialism process, which is its pathway to Registered Auditor status.
ACCA’s flexible qualification model has been welcomed throughout our long history in South Africa
The skills of ACCA members in audit are also recognised through audit regulatory recognition in other countries such as the UK, Ireland and Zimbabwe. ACCA’s flexible qualification model has been welcomed in South Africa throughout our long history in the country, providing a route to becoming an accountancy professional that is both inclusive and innovative.
