Westport student, Dearbhla Grealis, has reason to celebrate after ranking amongst the best in Ireland and the world in her accountancy exams.
An Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) student at Dublin-based online college, Accountancy School, Dearbhla finished first in Ireland and fourth globally in her Financial Management exam.
Viewing her result in context, of the worldwide number of 500,000 ACCA students, approximately 8,000 of whom study in Ireland, Dearbhla was among 28 fellow Accountancy School students to finish first in Ireland. All were recognised for their achievements at a ceremony in Dublin recently.
Congratulating Dearbhla on her result, 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.
