achieve a pass mark in a summative assessment (SA1 and/or SA2) may be provided one (1) further
opportunity to retake (supplement) the summative assessment at an additional re-assessment fee.

The overall mark will be calculated from the student’s performance on formative assessments (FAs)
and summative assessments (SAs).
What is the Curriculum and Fee?

The Boston Bachelor of Accounting programme consists of thirty-three (33) compulsory modules. See
Table overleaf. For more information, see pages 30 to 34 for the Catalogue Description of each module.
Please note that Module Fees listed in the Table are for the 2023 academic year.
The Module Fee charged by Boston is a package fee which includes the following:
1. Prescribed textbook and/or courseware;
2. Access to full-time educators to assist with academic support;
3. 24/7 online LMS to access video lectures and teaching and learning; and
4. Support center and student advisor.
As the Module Fee is a package fee, the Module Fee cannot be varied. The Module Fee, therefore,
cannot be varied due to the student being in possession of the prescribed textbook and/or courseware
prior to the commencement of the module and/or re-registration etc.
*For students that have initially registered between 2019 and 2021, please see specific Curriculum at
the end of the Fact Sheet.
How many modules can I take each semester?

The minimum is one (1) module per semester which will ensure that students remain academically active.
The maximum number of modules you can take in any one (1) semester is dependent on the number of
credits per module. It is recommended that full-time working adults consider completing the programme
in a duration exceeding the minimum period of three (3) years, which implies electing to take fewer
modules per semester.

Due Performance (DP): This module is not weighted nor credit-bearing. However, the
minimum hours required in continuous professional and career
development must be completed before progressing to the next year

assessments in the form of a final exam or capstone project (SA1), will
count fifty percent (50%), and a research or reflective essay (SA2) will
count ten percent (10%) towards the overall mark.

Catalogue Descriptions
Computer Literacy (Word, Word Advanced, Outlook) (HCLT101-1)

The learner receives an overview of one of the most sophisticated word-processing programmes
available today, Microsoft Word 2021. The learner will gain capabilities in producing professional
documents and creating letters, memorandums, faxes, annual reports, and newsletters. The learner
is also introduced to advance word-processing applications and will gain the ability to collaborate on
documents via track changes and commenting, insert and format graphics and charts, create
templates and Forms and work with Macros. The learner is introduced to Outlook 2021, a personal
information manager. Although often used mainly as an email application, it includes a calendar, task
manager, contact manager, note-taking, journal, and web browsing.
Academic Literacy (HALT130-1):

The purpose of Academic Literacy is to introduce students to the essential literacies required in the
present academic context. Several factors influence situations in which we can find ourselves, and
this is especially true of the job market – both within South Africa and internationally. While there
may be many opportunities, there are also many demands. As such, it is vital to gain a strong
academic foundation and make these skills work for you. Your learning should not be viewed in
isolation; ultimately, it should enable you to find employment, and even to make a valuable
contribution to society.
Business Management 1 (HBMN130-1):

The purpose of Business Management 1 is to introduce students to the basic concepts and principles
of general management. The module aims to equip students with an understanding of the role of
management in an organization, to evaluate the relationship between management style and the
environment in which a business operates, and to demonstrate and understanding of planning,
organizing, leading and controlling as management functions. By the end of the module, students
are expected to be familiar with concepts and principles of general management.
