₦airaland Forum

I am a professional Accounting student and i have noticed that there's always a kind of rivalry between students writing ACCA (Association of Chartered Certified Accountants) and ICAN (Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nigeria).

There's always a problem as to which of these is more difficult to write and which provides more benefits to the holder's of these certifications. I really want to know what Nairalanders feel.

I am an ACCA student, so you can guess which side of the divide i am.

i think the NYSC scheme has outlived its usefulness. they should just scrap the thing and allow our university graduates move on with their lives

i am an ACCA student and i have completed the oxford brookes degree.

you complete level 2 of the ACCA exams, write a research and analysis project and if you are successful you are awarded a degree in applied accounting from oxford brookes univeraity U.K.

you can take lectures at any acca tuition center and you can study on your own if you like.

its very challenging but if you are prepared, you can excell and even come out with a first class. i actually did.

good luck to all thats interested.
