Back in April 1992 ACTICAS, under the Chairmanship of Archie Donaldson, was formally launched, as a joint venture partnership between the ACT and the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Scotland (ICAS). For more than ten years this partnership has managed the provision of the Associate Examination, which is absolutely central to the ACT as the qualification leading to associate membership. ACTICAS is now being dissolved as a partnership and I am delighted to have the opportunity to pay tribute to ICAS and their contribution to the success of the ACT’s educational programme.
