About this event

The CIPFA ACFS is completed over 29 days. This includes four days of pre-course, self-directed learning, 15 days of virtual classroom learning, and ten days to complete the three course assignments.

You will be provided a link to join each workshop online. Our trainer will be there to greet you and the other delegates, and we aim to deliver just as we would if everyone was together in a physical training room. For best results we recommend the use of webcams. Your trainer will be available throughout the programme to provide support.
