The ACCA Diploma in International Financial Reporting (DipIFR) will enable you to cross boundaries in an increasingly important field of accountancy. It is designed to develop knowledge of international standards. It provides an understanding of the concepts and principles which underpin them, and of their application in the international marketplace.
ACCA has designed the programme to be flexible, so that the Diploma can be completed in three to six months.
The study guide is designed to help you plan your studies and to provide more detailed interpretation of the syllabus for ACCAs Diploma in International Financial Reporting (DiplFR) examinations. It contains both the syllabus and the study sessions for the paper, which you can follow when preparing for the examination.
The syllabus outlines the content of the paper and how that content is examined. The study sessions take the syllabus and expand it into teaching or study sessions of similar length. These sessions indicate what the examiner expects of candidates for each part of the syllabus, and therefore gives you guidance in the skills you are expected to demonstrate in the examinations. The time to complete each session will vary according to your individual capabilities and the time you have available to study. Tuition providers offering face-to-face tuition are recommended to design courses with a minimum of two hours tuition per study session. However, repeated coverage of the material is vital to ensure your understanding and recall of the subject. Be sure to practise past examination questions to consolidate your knowledge and regularly read the student accountant magazine that is available on www.acca.org.uk/publications/studentaccountant
