    Do the on-line CPD courses count for your 20 hours per year of external CPD courses.

    Was taking a look on the website and the online courses are a hell of a lot cheaper than going to a 3 hour course.

    After having a look, can I do my entire 20 hours of CPD on-line.

    I'll be getting 8 hours for free and after having a look over the courses, they are far cheaper than going to courses. With the times that are in it, it is looking like a very appealing option.

    I could possibley cover my entire years CPD for 300 Euros for instance.

    Oh, ACA by the way.

    ACA has 20 hours of external CPD required. Not sure what ACCA requires.

    I don't see why you couldn't, certainly cheaper and less time consuming

    Don't forget the 100 euro voucher that ACA are offering this year! Makes the CPD process a bit more affordable.
