Hi Conrad, we spoke a while back regarding the ACCA as i have real plans to start it. I have a question: since there is a required 3 years of relevant work experience, how can i know whether a job is relevant? Does it have to be within the financial sector?
Hey there - have a read here www.accaglobal.com/gb/en/student/practical-experience-per.html#:~:text=To%20complete%20PER%20you'll,Essentials%20and%20four%20Technical%20objectives.
Hi, i just recently graduated with a bcom finance degree and doing a finance graduate programme would acca give me the same opportunities as CA(SA). Im really drawn to acca due to the flexibility
I get you 100%; rather look at doing CIMA in south Africa because it’s better recognised and also you can get exemptions for ca(sa) up to the last 2 board exams.
With ACCA's accreditation with IRBA, the recognition is definitely increasing and will be more widely recognised in SA. It will take a bit of time, but it is gaining traction. You can't go wrong with either option. In a few years it would probably be seen as being on a similar level such as in the UK, Botswana, Zimbabwe etc.
Hi conrad! I hv done fsc pre engineering, currently in ksa, want to do acca, is it a mistake or gud decision? Is it true that now without any bachelor or masters degree acca can't go to UK Canada etc and many ppl r saying that acca=joblessness I'm am really worried n confused , don't want to waste my time , and can I go n do masters in uk after 9 acca papers and if I can I want to ask does acca has collaboration with uni of London, is doing msc in applied accounting preferable or in which thing I should masters, plz help n guide
ACCA is a top qualification for anyone in the world in Finance. The question would be: would you want to study it just so that you can move to another country or does it really interest you? I would do whatever makes you happier!
@@ConradBrink Good to hear that. Do you have a video about your ACCA journey (when started, how long it took, what were the most challenging exams, etc) ? One thing I don't like in ACCA is their organization mentality. Their mentality is old as f. For instance: diplomas looks horrible (for the amount of money they charge, they could have hired a designer), exam spreadsheets are like from 1997 (despite that they speak a lot about modern technologies in Finance/Accounting and PER), no time adjustments for non-native english speakers during exam (many certifications do give +30 more minutes for obvious reasons), their site is trash (section wise), living in AI world, they check exams for 1.5 month, exam sessions they organize every 3 months only (why cant they do it every 1.5 month)?

Hi Conard! Do you prefer styding acca on your own at home or should we go for institute that are offering it?
Definitely on my own at home. I always optimise for flexibility!
