<br />hello..
I am a student of CA from ICAP in Pakistan.. i will have my training in one of the big 4 firms most probably.. the training will be of 3.5 years on a minimum...
i would like to know about my status..
i plan to move to UAE after my training..ie after 3-4 years.. so i have to start planning right now with respect to my qualifications and start them now as this is the appropriate time..
please guide me..also suggest me any qualifications that you think i should do apart from CA that are possible in Pakistan.
i also have done bcom from Karachi University...

-whether the training of 3.5 years in a big 4 is counted as experience?
<b>Yes, obviously. </b>
-if i would get a decent job in UAE after my 3.5 years training from big4?
<b>If you are qualified as CA or ACCA or any other good qualification. </b>
-if i should do another qualification such as ACCA side by side..would it help? the ACCA training will also be counted along with my CA training if i start ACCA..so that means i wouldnt be an affiliate after my ACCA..
<b>You can go for CIMA, ACCA. Once you complete your 3 years of articles and pass all given exams, you will become a member just like ICAP. Doing another qualification would help you if you ever reach that point where you are a CA-inter and articles end. Needless to say, 75% of CA students do reach that breaking point. </b>
Its good to plan in advance. I would recommend you to start another qualification along side CA as you don't need to make extra efforts for it. You are already studying it all in CA itself and doing your articleship.
