Exams should be written using standard terminology and set within the capabilities of a well-prepared candidate within the allotted time and set in line with ACCA's approved style and format.
  • To ensure that exams are fair and balanced and contain the appropriate mix of questions which are of a consistent standard for the designated level of the qualification being assessed.

  • To ensure that all exams and solutions are free from error.
  • Co‑operate with the assessor, co‑ordinator and relevant ACCA staff in the amendment of exams.
  • Carefully read and correct all proofs of exam materials, answers and marking guides.
  • Be contactable on the day of the exam to answer any queries.
  • Administer and monitor the marking process and complete and submit relevant reports.
