We have covered multiple points about a career in ACCA. So, here are a few options to pursue after you finish B.com (or before even finishing B.com)
What’s next after B.com?
Other than the usual options of M.com and an MBA, there is an ocean of opportunities out there, for you to pursue after B.com. Courses like CIMA, ACCA, US CPA, IFRS, CFA and Foundation in Accountancy are in huge demand with employers and give you an extra edge in the job market.
ACCA in particular is an attractive career option amongst students and professionals alike because of its flexibility, amazing pass rates, and even better career opportunities.
The course which you can finish before B.Com and be JOB READY.
ACCA stands for Association of Chartered Certified Accountants. It is a globally recognized qualification that offers a strong foothold in subjects like Financial Reporting, Financial Management, Auditing, and Taxation. It has three levels: Knowledge level, Skill Level and Professional Level.
Career in ACCA certification & Training
Why has ACCA become one of the most sought-after career options?
- It is recognized globally: It is recognized in over 183 countries and has partnerships with more than 80 international accounting bodies.
- It has good credibility amongst employers: Since the ACCA body was formed in 1904 and requires a candidate to clear 13 grueling papers, it commands great credibility amongst employers globally.
- It has a well-designed and exhaustive course curriculum: The course curriculum of ACCA is regularly updated and makes sure that the students and professionals pursuing this course are abreast with relevant knowledge and skills.
- It is cost-effective: ACCA costs something between 3 to 4.5 lacs which is cheaper than pursuing an MBA.
- It is Flexible: The ACCA exams are conducted every three months. This is more flexible than the course’s Indian counterpart, CA exams which take place only twice a year.
- Exemptions: If you have finished your B.Com, and are wondering if it is too late for you to start, don’t worry. You are eligible for four exemptions. So, you can directly begin with the fifth paper of ACCA.
How do I choose the best ACCA training institute?
The ACCA exams need professional guidance and mentors, who are not only proficient with the subjects but also aware of the way students are tested in the exams.
This knowledge of the pattern in which the topics are tested usually comes with years of experience in the teaching field in combination with a sound knowledge of the subjects.
A training institute that offers personal attention and makes sure that the course curriculum is covered in-depth well before the exams should be sought. Also, make sure that the training institute you pick for guiding you on this journey finishes teaching the subject a good 1 to 1.5 months before you take the actual exam so that you have plenty of time for self-study.
Points to remember while choosing the ACCA coaching institute
Whether it is CA, ACCA or CPA a good coaching institute plays a major role in passing these courses. The right coaching institute not only gives you knowledge but also helps you to achieve results in initial attempts.
- The number of students in one batch should be limited to 15-20: Online or Offline a batch should not exceed 15 or 20 students for individual attention
- A limited number of faculties: The ideal number of faculty members to teach is two to three. The limited number of faculties will allow students to fine-tune their connection with a teacher for a subject and its clear understanding. A more number of faculty members may cause some confusion.
- Revision sessions & Mock Exams: At least 10 days of revision after completing the syllabus & detailed feedback after mock.
- Passing Percentage and percentage of students appearing for the exam: No. of students appearing for exams is the most important criterion as it helps us to understand the actual efforts taken by the coaching institute.
- Flexible timing for students and access to recordings: Batch timings should be suitable to your schedule and if it is online batch students must have access to recordings.
Choosing the right coaching institute is a game-changer for any ACCA Aspirants.
A Right coaching institute helps you to achieve your goal. And also helps you to be proactive, and alert while you are putting all your efforts toward your goal.
