Both are professional organizations and both have there own strict policies. As regards joining of a firm, it has always been very hard as no one monitors the Audit firms in Pakistan. A Ca trainee needs to have a strong reference and same goes for ACCA trainees. We did not prefer ACCA guys because those guys would quit in middle cause they always got good jobs in commercial sector that also served their training requirements. ICAP failed to keep coordination with other professional organizations thats why ICAP guys suffer a lot when they try their luck abroad. Seriously, guys having simple qualifications were preferred abroad. That's also a reality. As regards copying ACCA and other crap that you've written, its not true. ICAP is simply facilitating its students. As regards syllabus, its the same for ICAP and ACCA, though ACCA is more vibrant and in line with modern trends.
