The Requirement

Understanding PER & EPSM

The ACCA Practical Experience Requirement (PER) requires you to complete a minimum of 36 months of relevant practical experience and demonstrate achievement of 9 Performance Objectives in total — 5 Essential Objectives that are mandatory for everyone, plus 4 Technical Objectives chosen from a list of 17 based on your role — all documented through your ACCA MyExperience portal and signed off by an approved workplace supervisor.

The Ethics and Professional Skills Module (EPSM) is a compulsory online module, not a traditional exam, made up of 10 units covering ethics, communication, leadership, commercial awareness, and data analytics. It's usually completed in 15 to 20 hours at your own pace, and it must be finished before you can apply for full ACCA membership.

Many ACCA students spend years in limbo — exams passed, but membership not achieved — simply because they don't have clear guidance on how to document their experience correctly, identify the right performance objectives, or navigate the EPSM effectively. That's precisely what I fix.

Common mistake: Many students document experience in vague, generic terms that don't align with ACCA's competency framework. Specific, structured documentation — written the ACCA way — is the key to sign-off success.

I was going through one of the most difficult phases of my life when I connected with Bilal for life coaching. His approach is incredibly thoughtful — he blends practical strategy with a deep understanding of personality and purpose. Genuinely life-changing.

SaadACCA PER & EPSM Guidance
ACCA requires a minimum of 36 months of relevant experience. However, with proper planning and documentation from the start, you can have your PER signed off as soon as you hit the 36-month mark — rather than spending years in limbo afterwards.
Yes — and this is actually the recommended approach. Starting your PER documentation early, while you're still completing your exams, means you can apply for full membership sooner after your final exam pass.
The EPSM is a compulsory online module made up of 10 units, not a traditional exam you pass or fail. It requires genuine engagement with ethical scenarios and professional judgement, and is usually completed in 15 to 20 hours at your own pace. With proper guidance, most students work through it comfortably.
