The comment is self.explanraory I CAN is only accepted in Nigeria , ACCA is acxoeted in Nigeria and everywhere else in the world

You can work in finance anywhere globally with ACCA but not with iCAN

Nuff said

Be wise

Shut up your dirty mouth there! Any ICAN student that passes an ACCA exam in one try is a genius. But I assure you writing Ican for any acca student is a stroll in the park! Don't talk from your ass!

My background is accounting from secondary to uni to ACA. I'm not saying don't go for ICAN or ACCA; go if you can but note that ICAN, ACCA and auditing firms are destroying the accounting profession. Every Dick and Harry is now a Chartered Accountant. Firms are looking for value you add to their organisation not just your title. I gain jobs with my knowledge of my CCNA skills together with my accounting certs before other candidates with only accounting skills.

...and you had to insult your entire generation all because you needed to prove your point.

Ode... I said shut up your dirty mouth!

Go and shut your mum's mouth first

I have been looking for this , kindly enlighten me on how Accounting interrelate or correlate with CCNA .... What can one do with both skills ... is it in Accounting packages or what ?

Shut up liar! You can't even present your Ican certificate in Ghana here... Let alone Canada!

And where are the jobs. ICAN/ACCA members are even offered 70k jobs. The demand far exceeds the supply. Rather than gathering certificates with the beggerly mentality of seeking someone to create the jobs and employ you; create the job.

The relevance of accounting is fast fading away. Any sound person who is not Chartered can perform what an average Chartered Accountant can perform. Look beyond certification. Create that job, I.T rules the world.

Ugosample:


The supply far exceeds demand

You are a graduate, you should not be making this kind of mistake pls


And you are the same person talking about "destroying profession"

adubam:


ICAEW in England admits only accountant to their school just as Law school and you go through rigorous training b4 qualification. ACCA admits every one both mechanic the same pattern ICAN follows. That's the reason ICAEW is respected more in England over ACCA. The Law, Medical , Engineering profession don't give platforms for non related fields to be admitted into their profession. ANAN follows ICAEW model. ICAN realising this is cominy up with something similar and naming it university .

adubam:


CCNA or any computer networking knowledge makes you to prevent hackers via computer network. You can on your own configure an online or LAN network with your axcounting skill. Note most accounting softwares e.g Sage and SAP are run on computer network. Most companies would prefer an accountant with such knowledge over the other without the knowlege. Your can also go for CISA and CRISM etc.

Standardcosting:

Cost of ACCA though
Now that ICAN= ICAEW automatically!
And ICAEW will give you direct access to ACCA
It is needless to say that ICAN is now superior to ACCA!

Hopebringer:


Lies propaganda and trash

ICAN are struggling to remain relevant knowing that in every developed country ACCA is accepted and Nigerians.know this. Hence more have been going for ACCA but being a typical.Nigerian company who instead of building strategically they are seeking to use cheap.propaganda and deceit to woo students

The term 'Chartered' in ACCA qualification refers to the Royal Charter granted in 1974.

Chartered Certified Accountant is a legally protected term. Individuals who describe themselves as Chartered Certified Accountants must be members of ACCA and if they carry out public practice engagements, must comply with additional regulations such as holding a practising certificate, carrying liability insurance and submitting to inspections.

The Association of Authorised Public Accountants (AAPA), one of the British professional bodies for public accountants, has been a subsidiary of ACCA since 1996.

ACCA works in the public interest, assuring that its members are appropriately regulated. It promotes principles-based regulation. ACCA actively seeks to enhance the value of accounting in society through international research. It takes progressive stances on global issues to ensure accountancy as a profession continues to grow in reputation and influence.


These ACCA-X courses are available in over 190 countries worldwide:

Accountant in Business[12] (preparation for FAB/F1)
Management Accounting[13] (preparation for FMA/F2)
Financial Management[14] (preparation for FFA/F3)
Exam passes in these three modules and the completion of ACCA’s Professionalism and Ethics module will lead to the Diploma in Accounting and Business.

Professional partners Edit
Through partnerships with professional institutions, ACCA offers students and members access to other related professionals.

ACCA is one of three professional bodies (Others are the charterholders of Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) and MIPA/FIPA members of the Institute of Public Accountants) whose members are recognized by UK's Securities & Investment Institute (SII) as equivalent to full SII membership (MSI).[38] MSI are recognized by national investment professional bodies such as Financial Services Institute of Australasia (FINSIA)[39][40][not in citation given] and Hong Kong Securities Institute (HKSI).
ACCA and FINSIA have a separate global partnership. Under the agreement, students and members of ACCA may obtain advanced standing in the Institute examinations.
ACCA and the Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA) have a global partnership. Under the agreement, the two organisations cooperate, collaborate and share resources.
ACCA and the Chartered Institute of Taxation (CIOT) have a global partnership to enable ACCA’s members to take CIOT’s Advanced Diploma in International Taxation (ADIT).
ACCA members may access an accelerated route to Associate membership of the UK Association of Corporate Treasurers(ACT).
ACCA and Investors in People (IIP) agreed to enable IIP-recognised organisations in the UK and Ireland to apply directly for the award of ACCA Approved Employer (professional developments stream.) ACCA members working in IIP-recognised organisations benefit from the recognition of their work-related learning and take advantage of simplified CPD reporting.
Institute of Directors (IoD) and ACCA are working on initiatives to promote good governance and high standards in learning and development. From 2007, ACCA members seeking enhanced skills and improved organisational performance can undertake the Chartered Director qualification – a professional qualification for directors.[41]
Institute of Management Accountants (IMA) in United States agreed that Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) have to pass a final examination to get the Certified Management Accountant (CMA) designation(this policy has been ended in 2013). This is an IMA policy and mirrors privileges of other IFAC bodies, as well as to others with the equivalent of a U.S. Bachelor's degree (any discipline).

xreal:
Can a graduate of other fields of studies e.g Chemistry or engineering write or put in for ACAA or ICAN?


Are there lessons/classes around for it?

Abdul4trust1:
Mr copy and paste, there is no difference between ICAN and ACCA because IFRS is the regulatory standard for both bodies.

Hopebringer:
ACCA globally accepted

ICAN localy accepted only

Just saying

Hopebringer:
Alot of ICAN staff and marketers are on this thread to deceive my fellow nairalanders

Please do not be conned

ICAN is far inferior to ACCA

ACCA gives you global relevance ICAN gives you relevance only in Nigeria and just in government owned ministeries , parastatals and agencies not multinationals in Nigeria

Do you research and see
