Important Notes: Some of the screens in the lessons may bear marks referring to course code prior to the December 2007 syllabus. While there is a revamp of the ACCA syllabus, many of the topics, especially those addressing generic areas are still the same. Our instructors had reviewed the syllabus, and had taken out topics that are no longer relevant, and inserted or replaced lessons to address new topics. The lessons in the module therefore fully addressed the post December 2007 syllabus.
