03 February 2012 Hi,
What are the differences in CWA syllabus compared to CA? Is CWA a mini CA itself?
Please do not give me the link to website of the respective institutes. I have already gone there...

Thanks Very Much

Diff:

1. CA has wide scope (includes law, taxation, finance)in compariosn to CWA
2.CA are more in demand in industry being compulsory training of three years, more support of ICAI
3. IN CWA one learn costing on large scale which is less in demand due to computerisation era.

4. CWA is suppose to drive costs of new products being launched, do cost analysis work, calculate variances, cost audit etc.
But due to advanced techniques (computerisation) and in india there is lack of transperancy in true disclosure of costs and margins, demand/requirement of CWA has not reached as such levels as on CA.
