Comments on: So, which Accounting Certification is for you? http://www.asifism.com/accounting/so-which-accounting-certification-is-for-you/ A blog about fact & opinion Sat, 11 Feb 2012 02:15:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: JS http://www.asifism.com/accounting/so-which-accounting-certification-is-for-you/comment-page-1/#comment-10773 JS Sun, 29 Jan 2012 22:48:00 +0000 http://www.asifism.com/accounting-finance/so-which-accounting-certification-is-for-you/#comment-10773 I believe the CIMA JV with the AICPA combined with their gateway program to let MBA's complete the gateway test and final three strategic exams to obtain the ACMA or FCMA is a solid plan.  There are many versions of MBA's and the CIMA standardized exam series could become the capstone certification around the world for MBA's.  The CISA should not worry about the CPA add-on designation (GCMA).  It should be glad the AICPA has welcomed them into the US and the CIMA should easily outmanuever the US IMA for top world position in management certifications. All they have to do is push their capstone program for MBA's and get the word out to MBA granting institutions.  I believe the CIMA JV with the AICPA combined with their gateway program to let MBA’s complete the gateway test and final three strategic exams to obtain the ACMA or FCMA is a solid plan.  There are many versions of MBA’s and the CIMA standardized exam series could become the capstone certification around the world for MBA’s.  The CISA should not worry about the CPA add-on designation (GCMA).  It should be glad the AICPA has welcomed them into the US and the CIMA should easily outmanuever the US IMA for top world position in management certifications.

I need some advice from you. I have completed my ACCA from UK and recently moved to USA. I got few questions for you... a)  What should i do to start a career in accounting? Because  ACCA is not recognised in USA and I dont have much working experience as I was a full time student in UK. Just after achieving my ACCA degree I move to USA. b) If I want to do CPA than do i need to take additional courses? Or my ACCA will allow me to sit for the CPA exam.  I also need to inform you that i did not take the OXFORD BROOKS DEGREE from Uk and just pursued the ACCA QUALIFICATION. I searched many websites and spoke to many people. But the information i got is very confusing. As some people are saying that i need to join any University to get Bachelor Degree first as my ACCA qualification will not let me sit for the exam. Please let me know. Hi Commie!

I got my bachelor degree in management accounting in the Philippines on 2008, and moved to US after i graduated. I haven't worked in any related job ever since. I even tried to offer myself as a volunteer in CPA firm just to get an experience in the field, but there was seem no luck for me. So currently i'm working as a sales rep. Now i'm afraid that i'm beginning to forget what i've learned. What is the best way to do? Any advice from you? Hi Commie.
