Sally Juckes, audit partner at BDO said, “We are delighted at the 100% pass rate in Durban as we pride ourselves on the training we offer in Durban and are proud our trainees have done so well. In my history at BDO in Durban, we haven’t previously had anyone appointed to the Honours Roll so Kelton Bingham’s achievement is outstanding.”
SAICA appoint candidates to the Honours Roll who perform exceptionally well and show the greatest insight into the way they complete the APC case study tasks.
“APC is the last examination in the long journey to qualifying as a registered Chartered Accountant,” continues Juckes. “Once trainees have completed their remaining eight months of training (a three-year period in total), they will apply to be registered as a Chartered Accountant and begin their careers as professionals in the wonderful career of accountancy.”
