applying for full time studies. i will get full exemption for both professional certificate once i finish my bachelor degree in the near future.

i will also secure full sponsorship for my studies for either one.

so, what do you suggest /k/ tard? ICAEW or ACCA?


i dont really like acca coz acca nowadays too many already leh.

i also read that, ACCA and ICAEW nowadays not much difference. they're pretty much the same. any truth in that?

Icaew need accredited employer right?

Dont go acca.

Go cisco.

my knowledge about ICAEW is very, very shallow. i know almost everything about ACCA on its surface though.

Of course ICAEW higher standard. No brainer.

sorry. last time when i was in secondary school, /k/fags suggested me to take accountancy instead of IT, and here i am. going to the next level in the field.

good but prepare real job bored

Last time ACCA exam included in SPM la. So, you got both SPM and ACCA certificate. Dunno if you are an oldfag lol

Edit:
It was LCCI, not ACCA. My mistake

ICAEW la. It's more prestigious and well recognized in the UK and MNC's.

Ultimately, a lot of things depends on your attitude and working experience but ICAEW will give you an edge over all the other fresh graduates, which is all you can really ask for. In the past, ICAEW articleship was only available in the UK, so you're lucky if you have a chance to do it here, now.

Of course, you better make sure you're good enough to pass all the exams, cos ICAEW is definitely more difficult and demanding than ACCA. Most of the people taking ICAEW are usually close to being the top of their class, be it from accounting, engineering or other fields. So you'll be competing with them...

Do u still get exemptions if u take ICAEW? If ACCA u get exemptions for the papers that u have already covered in your BA. Last time uni mate have to take ICAEW from stratch after getting 1st Hons BA in Accounting and Finance

Can't really advise on this bro. Cos I have limited knowledge about icaew.

But u're right, lots of people have acca nowadays. Some go straight acca after spm too (skip degree).

Maybe u can have a look at jobstreet, does employers prefer acca or icaew? Or if u plan to work overseas, does that country prefer acca or icaew?

Employers in malaysia value acca alot

ICAEW brah.

If you don't mind me asking, what bachelors degree enables you to claim full exemption for both ACCA and ICAEW?
