There are several changes to the number of required workplace assessments following development of the 2010 curriculum. Trainees who began ACCS prior to 2010 should consult their local deanery on which curriculum and assessment requirements they should follow. All trainees begining ACCS training from August 2010 should follow the 2010 curriculum & assessment schedule.
