Why I chose ACCA?
3 years back, when I was finding my direction to start my career, I got to know about ACCA and its integration with the 'The IIS University'. Then, I started exploring it and talked to others who were already pursuing it. I scrolled through many pages of the ACCA website and, every time I used to visit it, I always learned something new. ACCA website in itself is a box full of resources!
There were many factors with ACCA that made me confident in this course, like:
- Integrated course (B.Com.(H) + ACCA)
- Eligibility criteria
- Feasibility
- Exam structure (knowledge, applied and professional)
- ACCA career portal (placement opportunity)
- Global recognition
- International standards (IFRS) and many more.
Several people told me that they learned about ACCA after graduation or after entering into corporate. Usually, we do not try to find other options or get the right direction. Thankfully, I was not amongst the ones. As a commerce student, you not only have CA as an option, there are so many courses like ACCA, CFA, CPA, CMA, CIMA, and others.
So, you should not get fixated to CA and explore other options too. For any help or guidance, connect with me. I will be happy to help.
