Thoughts on qualifications? - viking10 - 08-10-2010

Hi all,Im currently working in a completely unrelated field to accountancy and have been thinking for a while now to study aat then acca or aat then cima.Im 27 at the moment so have a couple of questions people will hopefully be able to advise me on.

Which is the stronger qualification Cima or Acca?
As I will be 32(ish) when i qualify will this be seen as a negative?
Are these qualifications strong on their own without experience?

Thanks in advance for any help or advice

There is nothing strong without experience every field wants some experiences.. both are good qualification .. but if i were u i must have chosen ACCA.

It is not necessary ke aap ka accountancy ka experience hona zaroori hai . Bhot sarey log non accountancy field ke baad ACCA YA CIMA join karty hain aur successful bhi hitey hain . Apko just thori si extra efforts karni parey gi
Both CIMA and ACCA are good profession.

i think there are already many people in this field and thus you vll definately get tough time as people are very experienced now a days at very young age.above all pray from Allah that he guides you towards the path which is better for u.Aameen
