Alpha University College MPAs,
Welcome to Financial Accounting! Below are the files and the YouTube videos you need for the course. The course content is based on the syllabus for ACCA paper F3/FFA. You should familiarize yourself with the ACCA F3 website (link at bottom of page), particularly the F3 syllabus and the technical articles.
Our content provider is OpenTuition, and you should familiarize yourself with the materials and resources available at the OpenTuition F3 website (link at bottom of page). The lecture notes are the course textbook and the lectures are youtube videos explaining the lecture notes, and the practice questions are short quizzes which provide you with feedback on your understanding of the material. I will assign self-study material and in-class material based on the difficulty level of the content.
I look forward to working with you!
Regards, Thomas
