MSc Financial Leadership
Study a masters degree in Financial Leadership validated by the University of Kent (a Gold awarded university by the Teaching Excellence Framework) and have the chance to become fully exam qualified with the ACCA.
This programme has been developed by Pearson Business School, with input from the ACCA and global leaders such as IBM and Santander. Our modules are taught by experienced Chartered Accountants who have worked for accountancy firms including PwC. We combine academic theory with real accountancy projects, so you develop the skills to be a successful financial leader.
Why choose this course?
- Gain a masters degree and the chance to become fully ACCA exam qualified - Our MSc Financial Leadership supports you to become fully exam-qualified with the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA). This can be achieved by completing the ACCA Strategic Business Leader (SBL) and Strategic Business Reporting (SBR) exams as part of the course. The tuition that you will receive for two option modules on the programme will also prepare you to undertake the two relevant ACCA professional exams independently to become fully exam qualified.
