Dear IAF,
The ICAP accepts ACCA qualifieds, and the qualified ACCAs get exemptions in the following
1. Pre-entry proficiency test.
2. Module A,B,C,and D,
so they just have to attempt in Module E and F, and they have to do articleship for a period of 3 years, with a CA firm, they have to appear in module E after they completed 18 months of their articleship.
as far as the value of ACCA is concered in Pakistan, here the ICAP's monopoly prevails, if u want to remain in the accountancy profession in pakistan then u should go for CA, (doesnt matter the route adopted by you, i.e. ACCA or ICMA),
ACCAs (with no articleship) gets job like ACMAs, but in they cannot be compared with the CAs in any case.
Clerks accountants, that was a joke dear, dont take it serious. they are called by just ICAP students, it doesnt mean that they are really clerk accountants, as far as pawwa is concerned, most of people even qualifieds get job by refrences, nobody takes the risks of hiring unknown people, however all the formalities of hiring like Ads in newspapers, interviews etc. are fulfilled.
I dont have any idea whether the Degree of B.Sc. in applied accountancy is recognized in Pakistan or not, can u tell me the university who issues that degree, then i ll be able to tell u its recognition.
SMR
