December 2019 exam update
A total of 2,981 advisers sat the December 2019 exam over 95 sessions, of which results will be released by the end of January 2020.
Further, FASEA announced the launch of its remote proctoring solution. The solution will be available for the February exam and all subsequent exams.
“FASEA continues to work closely with ACER to ensure exam processes are streamlined, accessible and effective, and exam sitting opportunities are optimised,” it said.
The latest on the adviser exam comes after last year saw a decision made to recognise Chartered Accountants Australia and New Zealand and Certified Practicing Accountants qualifications.
At the time, FASEA chief executive Stephen Glenfield said: “The awarding of credits for coursework to attain the CPA and CA ANZ designations provides appropriate recognition to existing advisers who have undertaken these further studies.”
