Association of Corporate Treasurers
The Association of Corporate Treasurers (ACT) is recognised as the worldâs leading provider of treasury education, offering specialised qualifications in treasury, risk & corporate finance. Formed to promote the study and best practice in corporate finance and treasury management, its education and examination syllabuses are recognised by both practitioners and bankers as the global standard setters for treasury education. Together with CIMA, ACT has developed an accelerated course of study for CIMA members and students who wish to study for Associate Membership (AMCT). This will equip candidates with a broader skills base at a time when intelligent risk management is becoming increasingly important. The time that you invest will bring long term benefits to your career. "I found the ACT qualifications very practical in nature and they complemented the more 'theory based' accountancy training. The additional depth of understanding gained, has proved invaluable in contributing to day-to-day decision making on risk and control issues" -Robin Harris MCT, ACMA, Vice President, Credit Suisse First Boston Although many of ACT's members are career treasurers, there are an increasing number who have sat the examinations in order to gain an additional qualification and enhance their personal development. Due to its structure and the number of exemptions gained (4½ of the seven papers) it is an ideal second qualification, with the Financial Director journal stating that "many FDs are members of the ACT and of an institute â which is a tribute to the ACT qualifications". What do the ACT exams cover? A modular syllabus wasintroduced in June 2005, allowing students to tailor the AMCT to their specific needs. CIMA Students and Members will automatically receive credits against the Foundation Papers and therefore only have to sit the Associate Papers to gain the AMCT. You would choose three of the five Associate Papers in one of the combinations illustrated in the table below. These ârules of combinationâ ensure that each studentâs learning includes fundamental treasury knowledge. For example, each combination dictates that all students will have studied either one or both of the Corporate Finance & Funding and Risk Management papers. Corporate Finance & Funding FastTrack * * * * * Liquidity Management * * * Risk Management * * * * * Financial Risk Mathematics (Certificate) * * * * * International Cash Management (Certificate) * * * Although not compulsory, it is strongly advised that CIMA Members and Students choose a combination that includes the Corporate Finance & Funding FastTrack paper as this will reduce the amount of study from three to 2½ papers. Study is a combination of distance learning and face-to-face tuition. Exams are held every April (enrol by 30 November) and October (enrol by 31 May). Because of the special arrangement that the ACT has with CIMA, you can enrol for the AMCT before you complete your CIMA qualification (members of other professional bodies have to wait until they have completed their exams before enrolling) but will only be allowed to use the AMCT letters once you have completed both AMCT and CIMA. In addition, no exemption fees will be charged on the 4½ papers that you do not have to sit. With many accountants now needing to understand the management of a companyâs treasury requirements and financial risks â either through cash flows or foreign exchange rates â this is the ideal time for you to complement your CIMA qualification. Upon passing AMCT, you will then be eligible to sit the Full Membership (MCT) examinations. This is pitched at MBA level and is increasingly seen as the gateway to top level financial careers. Read our three members' profiles below to discover the benefits of the ACT qualification. For full syllabus details and application forms, visit the ACT website or contact Manisha Parmar, Education Administrator, ACT, with your full postal address.

ACMA( CIMA UK ) is bit tough then ACCA but its cover the big job market in uk . Manegemant Accountants r the future of business world
here is some comments of some CIMA student and mambers which i am going to past The CIMA Professional Qualification will give you the power to help accelerate your career. CIMA is not just about getting your career off to a good start. If you're looking to rise rapidly through the ranks, CIMA will give you the skills to succeed at a senior level. The skills that you develop through your CIMA study will give you a wide choice of career options. They will allow you to work in a range of different industries. Our members work in diverse areas such as business analysis, management consulting, operations management and project management to name a few. Many of the world's top Finance Directors and Chief Executives are CIMA members. Read on to find out how these CIMA students and members have progressed their careers. "I chose CIMA as it has a larger proportion of study focused on commercial awareness and business strategy. This is ideal for my role which has more of a commercial and marketing slant." Marcelo Cespedes, CIMA student Regional Finance Manager, Scotland Coca-Cola Enterprises Ltd "It's not easy balancing the demands of work and CIMA, however the benefits are more than substantial. I find that as I progress, I draw on the knowledge I gain more and more in my current role." Nick Shapland, CIMA student Management Accountant Challenge Business International Ltd. "CIMA has enabled me to progress in finance, however, I am not constrained to finance and many of our buyers and store directors are CIMA qualified. Cross functional moves are quite common." Jody Brabbins ACMA Head of UK Reporting and Planning Tesco "I have no doubt that CIMA has been a significant help to my career. I have worked with many talented CPA's and MBA's â but I believe there is a gap inbetween these two skill sets not served by any professional organisation in the US. CPA's have to work to become business advisers, and MBA's always need to brush up on their accounting skills. CIMA members provide a unique balance of skills â good enough to prepare financial statements, and good enough to talk strategy with senior executives." Owen Barwell ACMA Senior Financial Adviser NASA, USA "I started studying CIMA with a non relevant qualification (BSc Geography), therefore my skills have grown and developed rapidly through the different levels of the qualification. I have enhanced my knowledge and developed both the practical and theoretical skills required to best contribute towards the business." Julie Hanson ACMA Finance Analyst Rolls Royce "At Microsoft, my role is as much about people as it is about profit. The CIMA qualification has given me a huge advantage because it emphasises business and people management, whilst providing a solid grounding in accounting and finance. These skills have enabled me to foster excellence and create an environment where great people can do their best work and realise their full potential." Stephen Harvey ACMA Director of People, Profits and Loyalty Microsoft "The CIMA qualification is well known and respected, and is one of the most popular overseas qualifications in Sri Lanka. As a Sri Lankan member I feel confident that I am being constantly updated on the latest developments in business. The largest benefit as an overseas member is the social and networking aspect. I actively support and advocate my staff to study CIMA." Rajeev Aloysius FCMA Finance Director The Autodrome Ltd, Sri Lanka ..... on the other hand ACA(ICAEW uk) is also batter and demanding in uk then ACCA. *Opportunist- a person who starts taking bath if he accidentally falls into a river *Atom Bomb is an invention to end all inventions *Criminal is a guy no different from the rest of us...except that he got caught [email protected]

IoD Diploma in Company Direction
Institute of Directors/CIMA Diploma in Company Direction Due to the success of the first cohort of the Institute of Directors/CIMA Diploma in Company Direction, CIMA is pleased to announce details of the second cohort, which will commence in July 2005. The corporate governance debate has meant that companies need to ensure directors â both executive and non-executive - understand and comply with the law. It is vital they are up-to-date with best practice and current business thinking. Those who are â or aspire to become â directors of organisations, are increasingly required to demonstrate that they have benchmarked their knowledge, understanding and expertise against leading edge practice. Against this background, the Institute of Directors and CIMA have joined forces and created the CIMA Diploma in Company Direction. This qualification is specifically tailored for CIMA members at board or senior management level. The programme reflects the issues and concerns facing CIMA members today. It covers aspects of corporate governance, directorsâ responsibilities, and strategy on how to improve business performance. It also provides delegates with an excellent opportunity to meet, network with and learn from their peers in other organisations. Successful completion of the Diploma can lead on to the IoDâs professional qualification, Chartered Director, which demonstrates the ultimate in director professionalism. To find out more about this qualification, take a look at the IoD/CIMA Diploma in Company Direction brochure, and at the latest dates for the second cohort commencing in July 2005. For further information or to book on this programme, please email [email protected] *A careful study of economics usually reveals that the best time to buy anything is last year *Opportunist- a person who starts taking bath if he accidentally falls into a river *Atom Bomb is an invention to end all inventions [email protected]
