Faculty of Business and Law retains ACCA Platinum Status

The Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) visited our Accounting, Finance and Economics Department today, to ascertain whether the department still met the requirements to retain their Platinum status.

Platinum is the highest and most prestigious level for a programme. Platinum approved ALPs adhere to the highest standards to provide students with the best possible chance of success.

To be considered for Platinum approval, learning providers must already be Gold approved and meet ACCA's Platinum performance targets and pass-rate targets over two consecutive sets of results. Platinum ALP have to provide evidence of continual improvement and innovation.

Owing to the consistent hard work of the lecturers, tutors and course leaders, and to Hannah Holmes, Barry Mounsey and Anna Egan for collating materials and answering queries during the visit, the department has been approved with no conditions.

This is excellent news for the faculty, and the students on the Accounting, Finance and Economics courses, who can continue to expect the highest quality of teaching and support.
