Mr. Greatkhans
You have rightly brought out that there are hundreds of stundents struggling for years in a bid to get through their final examination. Some of them even give up this struggle and swithed to other qualifications i.e; CIMA, ACCA & ICAEW which are relatively easier. I would like to refer to recent switch over program of ICMAP due to which most of the students were reluctant to appear in previous examination.
Contents of ICMAP Syllabi are excellent and so is the mission statement but the Faculty and rigorous efforts required to produce world class professionals seems to be missing. While When it comes to examination our examiners level of expectation tends to be on the higher side. I was little surprise to see in recent financial report not even a single penny was spent on research. This reflects apathy of management. But here we can't blame institute alone industrial sector of Pakistan will have come forward. I bet if they cough up a meagre percentage of their profit for industrial research it will work wonder. Moreover, our course of study is designed to produce professionls who are capable of diagnosing problems that industry is suffering through. This will enable our professionals to gain insight and recommend plausible solutions to address these problems.
Nevertheless, ICMAP's MRA with CIMA (UK) Wherein ACMA(PK) granted 11 exemptions out 14 papers of CIMA(UK) is a land mark achievement. This thing speaks volume about ICMAP recognition within and outside Pakistan.
Regards,
