Dear
You and Ali Noor both are right. ICAP is an autonomous body and typically has to take all decisions at its own.
The idea about training at industry was floated by ICAP members and was also opposed by ICAP members. Still, so many members feel it a workable proposition. However, it has been rejected by majority, after which, it was decided to think on this matter afresh.
This issue now has to be discussed in detail, among members.
Since majority has already opposed it, there are almost no chances of having it implemented.
If for any reason, this is allowed and implemented, even then our industry neither has capacity nor a mindset to train the students of an apex body like ICAP.
ICAEW has authorized certain industries in Pakistan to train their students for ACA program. However, this idea has shown its failure so far. The companies (in industry) which were authorized don't even know what is ICAEW. So, it's a joke.
I am of strong view that industry cannot train CA students and as such will not be allwed to do so, since it has strongly been opposed.
Regards,
Kamran.
