Todayâs marketplace demands a qualification that is desirable by employers. CIMA qualified people bring more than basic accounting skills to the table. They have an innate sense about the future; what it will look like, the demands it will present and what it will take to achieve success. The CIMA qualification is becoming the chartered qualification of choice.
CIMA has a total business focus â 99% of CIMA members and students work in business and not in accountancy practices. This has enabled us to deliver a new professional qualification with double the focus of any competitor on business management and strategic management accounting. Overall we provide more management, more management accounting, more project management and more strategy than any other UK accounting body.
Our syllabus is both practical and innovative. The unique blend of academic training and practical experience continues to provide employers with what they want - Chartered Management Accountants who have the leading edge skills to drive business growth. This combination perfectly matches the needs of modern organisations.
Unlike other accountancy qualifications, TOPCIMA (the case study and final test of professional competence) tests for business awareness and higher level cognitive skills such as analysis, synthesis and evaluation. This requires students to take account of business, financial, ethical and human resource strategy issues â all taught through the syllabus.
There are other unique elements of the CIMA syllabus that makes the CIMA Professional Qualification stand out from its competitors as the chartered qualification of choice for business. We have a major focus on ethics throughout the new syllabus and we are the only body to focus on interpersonal skills as a requirement of the new Professional Qualification.
