We all should keep one thing in mind
CA was tough
CA is tough
CA will remain tough.
Only education and training policy is going to change, not ICAPâs system or way of doing things.
Even abolishment of Bad Failure cannot change toughness of CA.
Even if ICAP provides high quality study material, it will definitely attract students all around Pakistan and it will certainly help students but toughness will remain there in sense that those books will be just âone more to the total of recommended booksâ and students will have to go through all those recommended books.
There is only a hope that development of high quality study material compatible with new syllabus would be achieved within the tenure of this council.

CA is always worth doing. It always has been rewarding profession.
ICAP is following ICAEW. It looks good. But the fact is ICAP is following international education standards and best practices followed by world renowned institutes.
Example is industrial training which is also known as training outside practice.
This form of training is followed by many institutes. But it will not be same as we find in other places. My personal view is that ICAP will not waive the requirement of training in CA firms. Students will have to go through both industrial training as well as training in CA firms.
Industrial training will be introduced for the purpose of creating training opportunities.
Noman
Economic growth, industrial development, attracting the foreign investment and managing the various crises are not under the control of ICAP.
ICAP website is currently showing two important phrases
1. growing together
2. creating opportunities globally
This is what ICAP can do for students and members in current economic conditions.
