Details are available on the Institute’[s website www.cpaireland.ie](s website www.cpaireland.ie).\u003Cbr>Competency Levels |\n\n\n| Suggested reading material is listed for each subject. A wide range of appropriate reading and web-based material available in all subjects has been carefully considered. The list of learning resources will be updated when necessary and students will be informed of such amendments. Students are advised to acquire the recommended books which will be invaluable during study and will form the basis of a personal library after qualification. The value of a wide reading of books, journals, web-based research and Technical Standards as a further extension of knowledge is emphasised, as the learning resource list is not intended to be exhaustive. It is important to obtain the latest editions, where recommended. At Strategic examination stages there is a requirement to demonstrate knowledge of relevant current developments. The syllabus does not necessarily set the boundary of knowledge required, students are expected to read widely from the financial press, periodicals, Accountancy Plus, (the official journal of the Institute), Student News e-Bulletins, web-based resources and other professional journals.\u003Cbr>Past Examination Papersand Suggested Solutions |\n| --- |\n| The Institute publishes past examination papers and suggested solutions on the CPA Ireland website.
