Today I’ve received nice Christmas gift from ACCA - 40 hours of life. They’ve just confirmed, that there is no need to comply with Continuing Professional Development requirement for year 2009. Why? Because I’m member of ACCA since 2009, therefore Continuous Professional Development requrement becomes valid for me starting 2010. And I would have 40 hours to complete within 12 months instead of 27 days. Thanks again. I promise, next year I’ll behave better
