Profile of the Programme:

Following the EU Regulation 1606/2002, all listed companies within the European Union are, as of 2005, required to prepare their consolidated accounts based on International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and abandon any National GAAP.
The Diploma in International Financial Reporting (DipIFR), which is awarded by the ACCA, will enable you to cross international boundaries in an increasingly important field of accountancy.
The DipIFR is designed to teach the fundamentals of IASs and IFRSs and to develop an understanding of the concepts and principles that underpin them.  It can also provide eligible Continuing Professional Development units for ACCA members, as required under their CPD scheme.
The DipIFR is the ideal IFRS qualification for experienced staff who may already hold a non-IFRS compliant accounting qualification.  Possession of the DipIFR is positive proof of IFRS competence that will be recognized throughout the EU.

On completion of the Diploma candidates should be able to:

  • understand and explain the structure of the framework of international accounting
  • apply relevant financial reporting standards to key elements of financial reports
  • identify and apply disclosure requirements for companies in financial reports and notes
  • prepare group financial statements (excluding group cash-flow statements) including subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures.
