Dundalk student, Eoghan Woods has reason to celebrate after finishing third in the world in his accountancy exam.

An Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) student at Dublin-based online and blended learning college, Accountancy School, Eoghan ranked first in Ireland and third globally in his Advanced Financial Management (AFM) exam.

Viewing his result in context, of the worldwide number of 500,000 ACCA students, approximately 8,000 of whom study in Ireland, Eoghan was one of 27 fellow Accountancy School students to finish first in Ireland. All were recognised for their achievements at a ceremony in Dublin recently.

Congratulating Eoghan on his 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.

“Against the backdrop of an acute world-wide shortage of accountants, ACCA trainees, affiliates and members are in high demand throughout the world,” O’Donoghue added.
