Hi
First of all, ICAEW is really despread to increase her membership everyone knows that, and yes ICAEW is in Financial Difficulties,read the ICAEW Cheif Exective statements before the voting of merger proposal.
If ICAEW is not interested in increase her membership y she is introduce CCBA membership route.
Secondary, I never said ppl are prefering ICAS rather than ICAEW. Its not really upto students, its upto employer. Employer are more interested in ICAS over ICAEW as in current structure of both institutes slybus, there are exemptions for graduates in ICAS examintions.
As in UK employers pays all the students fees like tutition fee, examination fee etc. Therefore employer can reduce these students fees upto some extent if they choose ICAS over ICAEW.
Thirdly, Ernest and Young (Amongst big 4 firms of the world) does not offer ICAEW training to her students at all. All of EY students are studying for ICAS exams.
Fourthly, another other amongst top 10 called W H White moves towards ICAS.
So please research before posting anything.
I personally prefer ICAI as ICAI is the only UK based qualifications fully recognised in USA, means ICAI is MRA with CPA America. In other words ICAI members can sign audit report in all countries where ICAEW members can plus in USA. ICAEW members cant sign audit report in USA as ICAEW does not have MRA with CAP America.
On person ask is it possible to start ICAEW training after ICAP Modul D. I just want to say that to start ICAEW training you do not need to pass single papers of ICAP.
If one wants to take admission in ICAEW one even does not need to take PPT as in the case of ICAP.
To register with ICAEW one at least need to have A-Level. As Bachelors degree from pakistan is equals to A-Level therefore one either need to have A-Levels of Bahelors degree from Paksitan.
For A-Level or Graduate from Pakistan duration of Training Contract (Articles) is five years and plaese remember no firm in UK will offer u training contract (Articles) for five years if you are overseas students requiring work permit. Please note that A-Level or Graduate from Pakistani university are even not legally eligible to apply for work permit. If a firm in Uk apply for work permit on someone behalf who is A-Level or graduate from Pakistani university, British givernement will reject the applications.
Yes Masters degree from Pakistan in equal to UK bachelors degree, but after Masters from pakistan there is less than 1% chance of secring training contract (Articles) in Uk. As far as ICAS in concerned only UK graduate or Masters from pakistan are eligible to seek admissiom regardless of their nationality, but agin main problem is securing training contract (articles) in UK.
If one has bachelors degree from UK then duration of Training contract (Articles) is three yrs. Its again depends from which university one did his graduation. If oversaes students have completed his bachelors even from Oxford or cambridge then still there is 50% or less than 50% chance to securing training contract (articles) in UK if u requires work permit.
