<blockquote id="quote">quote<hr height="1" noshade id="quote"> Dear Mahtab,On the basis of B.com &
Banking Diploma,I got 7 exemptions out of 15
papers and I wrote Eight papers,which I
qualified without single failure.

The examinations were of international standard.
Their standard is comprable to HEC recognized
MBA and M.Com degrees and in some areas it was
higher.(I am Agree with you Dear Khalid)

Further,ICSM is(one of,Mahtab)founder member
of Pakistan Institute of Corporate Governance.
(I am Agree with you Dear Khalid)

While granting exemption in its Part IV,
Institute of Internal Auditors, USA ranks
ICSM, ICSP, ICMAP & ICAP.(I am Agree with
you Dear Khalid)

PIPFA also allows exemptions to ICSM qualified
members.(I am Agree with you Dear Khalid)

This time I also asked ICMA admission officer,
he confirmed that they recognize ICSM for some
exemptions.(Dear Khalid I am Disagree with you
till Today not recognized ICS&M at

www.icmap.com.pk/exemption_plocy_prof_06.pdf

by ICMAP)

Further,SECP has isssued a statutory notification
dated 09 March 2005 after due contemplation and
setting aside unhealthy compaign of ICSP,whereby
members of Institute of Chartered Secretaries are
eligible to become company secretaries of public
Ltd.companies.What else recognition do you expect?

Mahtab,the syllabus of ICSM is more prestigious
than that of ICSP.(Khalid Did you know and Compare
new syllabus of ICSP with ICS&M? which is
unfourtunately not available at ICSP website but
is available from ICSP offices)

The Institute cultures secretaries & managers with
the capability to offer reliable Corporate solutions
in the complex environment..(I am Agree with you Dear
Khalid)

As far as market recognition is concerned, with the
Passage of time,we shall deepen our roots.
(Insha Allah,Mahtab)
