CA and ACCA are very much similar qualification as far as knowledge and theory concerned. But in practical scenario CAs are better than ACCAs due to controlled and arranged training scheme for CA students during their qualification. However I even being the student of CA would advice the new comers in accountancy field to go for ACCA instead of direct entry into CA. Benefits of ACCA while in Pakistan have reduced due to ICAP's revised exemption policy but even then ACCA is globally known qualification. "ACCA is better than being a Part qualified CA having no worth abroad and currently in Pakistan too"
