I extracted the Timeline:
September 2020 - Exemption for Taxation Module
January 2023 - Exemption for Financial Reporting Module
April 2024 - Introduction of Accelerated Pathway Programme
Benefits
What are the Benefits of the APP?
Under the APP, ISCA will sponsor the following SCAQ-related fees:
- Annual SCAQ candidature fees till graduation from university.
- Module exemption fees (for up to 2 modules).
- One-time SCAQ module exam fees (except the IB module) for penultimate and final year students.
- Complimentary revision classes for the Assurance (AS) and Business value, governance - and risk (BG) modules for enrolled students.
Does it mean future undergrad will attempt 2 x SCAQ paper Assurance (AS) and Business value, governance - and risk (BG) during their uni day?

Just 2-3 years difference:
New hires are getting higher pay, whereas during our time, we only got $3.2-3.3k. We took five papers while working, while they take only one. University enrollment was AABC/AABB for us, while theirs is BCCC/BBCC.
Of course, it’s normal to feel some bitterness, but really, there’s nothing we can do. The sunk cost will never be compensated.
Accounting is not as prestigious as it used to be
