<br />Dear Shredder
Sorry you had to wait.
Take it this way, with CMA (IMA) and CAT at-least you can represent yourself as US and UK education holder to prospective employers here, which may increase your employability.
Dear, I donât know either how many CAT or ACCA papers would be exempted after CMA (IMA). Suppose if someone has to do 10 ACCA papers in total and he takes 2 papers in each attempt. It would take about 2.5 years to complete all ACCA papers. At-least I can tell you that completing any of 3 Canadian designation takes more than 2.5 years for immigrants. However, you would have to calculate cost and risks involved in this option.
I have no idea about IAT institute you referred. In my view, you may consider any local college/ university diploma where you would be residing (like Seneca/ Centennial/ Humber/ York/ Ryerson etc. in Toronto), as employers know and prefer graduates of local institutions. Though website of this IAT institute says its Canadian but I never heard of it before.
I hope it helps.
Best Wishes and Regards

salam Toronto-boy,
CMA(IMA) gets 7 exemption in ACCA so 7 remain to be attempted which could be done in a year(3 and 4 in two attempts).

Hi Toronto boy and Shani,
Thanks for your inputs. Very well appreciated. [D] I guess IAT is out of the plan for the meantime. Also tried to google but the only hit i had was the link to their website, and hope that IMA's exemption will not be lessened.
Regards.
