In the course of its contributions to capacity building in Nigeria, the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nigeria, ICAN, has made significant progress in securing the National Universities Commission’s (NUC) licence for the establishment of the ICAN University

President of ICAN, Mrs. Onome Adewuyi, revealed this at the foundation stone-laying ceremony at the University's proposed site in Kwali, Abuja. She said “the university would start with postgraduate courses in the Social and Management Sciences such as Accounting, Economics, Business Administration, Finance etc.

The ceremony was witnessed by prominent men and women in Abuja including members from the NUC, traditional and religious leaders.

While speaking at the 67th induction ceremony of new members in Lagos, Mrs. Onome Adewuyi admonished newly inducted members, she added, “We expect that the inductees of today would continue to aspire for both professional and academic relevance in the market and I encourage you to take advantage of this window of opportunity by ICAN to add to your academic qualifications by enrolling for postgraduate courses at the proposed university in any field of interest to you.

“We also request that you would be our advocate in projecting the university, when operational, to your friends, colleagues and associates.”

Meanwhile, Adewuyi frowned at any form of professional misconduct, affirming that ICAN has appropriate disciplinary mechanisms to deal with erring members.

She stated, “We frown at any form of professional misconduct and the Institute has appropriate disciplinary mechanisms to deal with erring members.”She noted that induction into the profession, qualifies the inductees to becoming part of the over three million accountants across the world under the umbrella of the International Federation of Accountants (IFAC).

Adewuyi said the professionals are faced with a situation that interestingly creates both threats and opportunities globally, adding that there are threats for organisations and professionals who fail to adjust to emerging developments and opportunities.

To the new members, she said: “As you begin this journey, you should set yourself apart from the masses by utilising the rich professional guidance and technical resources from the Institute and the various organisations we are affiliated with. Opportunities for knowledge transfer are now broad and the channels to quench your thirst for knowledge are now expanded.”

Please check this information! The ANAN university already approved and located in Kwall, Plateau State should be the first Accounting university in Nigeria.

A nice initiative from ICAN..

Could remember that time in secondary school when one of our teachers would be bragging with his ICAN certificate .
Saying:
I have two ICAN certificate..!
I have two ICAN certificate..!!!
If you know what it takes to have one, you wouldn't be misbehaving like this

I can't say about now sha... If they're still on to that their fame and their pride... ICAN

Woow! Nice one. That's used to be my course. Lost interest and did a change of course when I realized i would be calculating or auditing other people's money.

If only there was accountability to ICAN exams too.
No one is accountable in Nigeria, that’s why a governor’s door opener has his own door opener

...we acquire all of these knowledge here in the south only for Aboki them to be given key juicy positions...

When I saw this post what comes to my mind is that COREN is useless

Wrong location. This should have been in the South. That is where ICAn revenue comes from.

I no be bad belle but u must say this thing .

Nigeria would not regard you if you are not charted in London with L.LB at the end of your name.

We don't value our own. we have engineers here yet Chinese engineer handle all the big project.

They want you to have 30 years experience before employing you, but they won't give you a chance.

Go to India and see how accountants are cashing out. They have big accounting firms there that does most American household tax.

what these idiots are doing in the photo above is a waste of time. only stupid people will fall for the scam.

In the next 5 years if you didn't graduate from this school and you read accounting, he don be for you o......just go and open POS kiosk

A great innovation
Where our polithiefians will learn the technology of stealing state's money and evade EFCC, ICPC and send it abroad without the bank knowing NIGERIA WE HAIL THEE

God innovation!

This University will remain at foundation level for the next 20 years, all the funds will be looted and relooted, thick bushes will grow and cover the little progress done on the site cos the funds has been looted and the work abandoned. This I have seen.

More Chartered Accountants coming up soon...

Graduates will be awarded a Bsc and also the ICAN cert .. Pure cruise.
