Hi
In response to your question -
CIMA (Certified Institute of Management Accountants)
ACCA (Association of Certified Chartered Accountants)
CIMA is aimed towards Industry
ACCA is more broad and can be used in Industry/ Pracitse/ Auditing
You need experience for both qualifications, I know it is 3 years for ACCA as that is what I am studying but cannot say for definite how long for CIMA.
Your choice will depend on which field you would like to work in? Which area do you have experience in? Which qualification does your employer prefer?
Sorry, I asked more qustions than I answered, but you need to think about which qualification will serve you best!
Hope that helps!
