ICAEW has thrown away paper manuals and all its learning materials for the 2021 exams is being published digitally.
The exams are all computer-based, and now the learning material is too. ICAEW says this will allow students to access their manuals on their mobile, tablet or desktop.
A real innovation here has been the ability for studiers to still write notes and highlight on their digital workbooks. There is also a key terms search, the ability to change the settings to make it easier to read, and if you are feeling particularly lazy the book will read itself to you – you have text to speech function.
The new workbooks also combine skills and syllabus learning with the study manual in one publication.
ICAEW says digital delivery is better for the environment and will save 262 tonnes of paper each year.
