Learn more about the completing and submitting the portfolio and reflective statement (PRS).
There are two documents that an apprentice should complete as part of their PRS. These documents should be submitted to TBAssessment@accaglobal.com before the relevant submission deadline.
The documents can be found under the Related Documents section of this page.
PRS deadline
The submission deadline for the PRS is the Monday immediately before every ACCA exam week.
Our exams are held four times a year in March, June, September and December. Check the exam dates here.
Training log
The training log can be downloaded to allow apprentices to keep a summary of their practical work experience throughout their apprenticeship. The training log has been mapped to the skills and behaviours included in the Apprenticeship Standard for the Professional Accounting Technician apprenticeship. It will provide a record to help the appretnice complete and submit their PRS as part of the Level 4 end-point assessment (EPA).
