As part of ACCA’s (the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants) digital transformation programme, its members in Ireland, Poland, Pakistan, Hong Kong and Singapore have helped the professional body to redesign a new digital platform called MyACCA.

Offering a new and personalised way of working with ACCA for members and students, the platform is customised so that members can see clearly where they are on their journey with their professional body.

With MyACCA, members can track their continuous professional development (CPD), and keep up to date on their annual returns to ACCA. MyACCA also offers clear transactions that users are in charge of, and the technology can be used on any platform from smart phone to tablet to laptop.

Speaking of the developments, Mhairi Wilson, ACCA’s digital transformation director, says: ‘Innovation is one of ACCA’s core values and like many global businesses today, digital is a vital part of our business model. MyACCA means our community is always connected to ACCA in the way they want to be. To create this platform, it was important for us to capture user input, so it’s been really enlightening to collaborate with members and transform their user experience together.

‘To test the system, we’ve had a soft roll-out of MyACCA recently, with excellent feedback – all commending the modern style and content, alongside the individualised design. MyACCA is a significant development for ACCA, and is just part of the on-going investment we are making in our digital architecture for the benefit of our members and students.’

In the New Year, MyACCA will be available to students.
