03 August 2010 Dear Jag,

CIMA is going with big plans in India, so I suppose it will become a popular qualification in India in some time (5 years or so).

It is one of the most preferred qualification in the middle east.

I think the right way to think is the learning it provides and the membership to belong an esteem group (on top of having the designation)

Personally, I felt tremendously enriched with the knowledge I gained which I could directly apply to business situations.

The institute continuously does research to ensure timely update of the syllabus and employability of CIMAs

My last query pls. -

Could you pls. give me a breif idea about the company going to hire CIMA qualified in India?

Presently I am working in a Pvt. Ltd company in India, I am taking care of all accounts part here. I have more than 7 year experience in accounts field.
Does this experience will be counted by CIMA for there 3 year compulsory training, Or again I have to go for three year training with the institute suggested by CIMA.

Thanks.

04 August 2010 I think British MNCs (and a few European) Cos will always prefer CIMAs

Generally companies who wish to have finance professional with commercial fit will prefer CIMAs as CAs have a lacking in that area.
I however feel that Indian companies will continue to prefer CAs due to their expertise in accounts, tax and auditing area, which you may now have overcome with your past experience.

From your explanation on your experience, the same will be counted. Once you qualify, you have to send them your career profile. As long as it is well written, they will clear you through. You can approach me, if you wish you vet that before you apply.

Please feel free to ask any further questions that you may have and it will be my pleasure to assist you.
