there is a high demand for QUALIFIED/SKILLED/EXPERIENCED ACCOUNTANTS in UK. A person who has got any CCAB qualification with few years experience and who KNOWS what he does can EASILY get a job in UK.
my friends when we talk about the market of PROFESSIONAL qualifications we dont compare them rather we compare their OUTPUT in the market. we analyse the "+s" and "-s" of the members of those bodies.
there is NO doubt that ACCA and CA-EW are considered at par in this country but at the same time there is no doubt that CA-EW is considered prestigious. it is very much like ISLAM where it says MEN and WOMEN are equal but when we talk about Islamic Inheritance Law we fail to understand this equality. When we look at the picture in totality we realise that IN TOTALITY men and women are equal which means in some places MEN have an edge over WOMEN and in some places women are considered superior. we CANNOT deduce conclusions without looking at the WHOLE picture.
CA-EW is an old ESTABLISHED institute which follows a more TRADITIONAL approach. ACCA is more dynamic and fast moving. we cant say that one qualification is superior to another just because WE hold that qualification......believe me i m not trying prove ACCAs equality just because i m an ACCA..........this is the TRUTH.
ICAEW/CIMA and CIPFA's proposed merger explains the story of what is happening inside these institutes. ACCA is growing and growing like anything. if u happen to look at the market survey reports on the links my friend posted earlier in this thread you would notice an increase in ACCAs rate and a decline in CA's market rate. what does that mean???
definitely it doesn't mean that ACCA is superior to CA-EW instead it means the MARKET trend is shifting towards ACCA because of its OUTPUT in the market.
kind regards
