Louth accountancy students amongst world’s best
Two Louth students rank amongst the best in Ireland and the world in their accountancy exams.
Two Louth students have reason to celebrate after ranking amongst the best in Ireland and the world in their accountancy exams.
Drogheda’s Eimear Clarke finished first in Ireland and eighth in the world in her Advanced Taxation exam, whilst Dunleer’s Michael McKenna ranked first in Ireland and seventh globally in Strategic Business Leadership. Both are Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) students at Dublin-based online college, Accountancy School.
Viewing their results in context, of the worldwide number of 500,000 ACCA students, approximately 8,000 of whom study in Ireland, Eimear and Michael were among 28 fellow Accountancy School students to finish first in Ireland. All were recognised for their achievements at a ceremony in Dublin recently.
Congratulating both on their results, Accountancy School managing director, Dave O’Donoghue said “ACCA is a globally recognised accountancy qualification, and the key to a hugely rewarding career in accountancy and financial management, here in Ireland and internationally.
“At a time when employers worldwide are actively seeking qualified accounting talent, ACCA trainees, affiliates and members continue to benefit from strong demand for their skills and excellent career prospects,” O’Donoghue added.
