Are video course updates included during my access period?
Yes. During your access period, you will have access to the videos included in the course, including additional content uploaded for syllabus changes where relevant.
If I purchased PDF materials, can you send me the latest version for free?
Whilst we cannot send you the latest version, if there have been any significant changes then it will be possible to purchase just the updated content at a greatly reduced price. Details will be available on the 'materials update' page from December 2026.
When will your 2027 courses and materials be ready?
We expect that Certificate and Professional Level courses will be available from January 2027.
We expect that Technical Case Study will be available from May 2027.
Once the 2027 course and materials are available, it will state (2027) next to Video Course and Study Materials on the relevant subject page.
Students sitting the existing ACA Corporate Reporting (CR) and Strategic Business Management (SBM) exams in 2027 will be examined using the 2026 ICAEW materials. Therefore, you should purchase the 2026 ACA Masters courses and materials for these exams.
If I purchase the 2026 video course, will I get the 2027 content once available?
Yes. The new content will be uploaded to the course once available so you will automatically get access. We will also upload a 'syllabus changes' video if there have been significant changes.
If I purchase the PDF 2026 materials, can you send me the 2027 version once available?
No. If you are not sitting an exam in 2026, you should wait until the 2027 version is available before purchasing.
If you do purchase 2026 and there have been any significant changes then it will be possible to purchase just the updated content at a greatly reduced price. Details will be available on the 'materials update' page from December 2026.
Will CR and SBM students sitting in 2027 be examined on the 2026 syllabus?
Yes. Students sitting the existing ACA Corporate Reporting (CR) and Strategic Business Management (SBM) exams in 2027 will be examined using the 2026 ICAEW materials. Therefore, you should purchase the 2026 ACA Masters courses and materials for these exams.
If I purchased materials based on the CR/Case Study advance information, can you send me the latest version for free?
No. Each AI is unique so the materials must be created from scratch for each exam sitting. The AI-based materials require a substantial amount of time to be spent for each exam sitting. Therefore, we do not offer to send subsequent versions of the AI-based PDF materials free of charge.
Which tax year is my exam based on?
The ICAEW syllabus is for each calendar year. The ICAEW materials will confirm which year the materials are for. For example, the Workbook and Question Bank will state: 'For exams in 2027'.
Our materials follow the ICAEW approach i.e. TF Materials 2027 and TCP Materials 2027.
Exams in 2027 will be based on the tax year 2026/27. Therefore, the Tax Tables / Hardman's Tax Rates and Tables will be for the tax year 2026/27. We are not involved in arranging your access to the Tax Tables / Hardman's Tax Rates and Tables so you need to do this via ICAEW.
