Hi
ICAEW CCAB route, has been introduced by ICAEW after failer of her merger with CIPFA, at present ICAEW is asking to much and as a result no member of instotutes which are CCAB members has applied or even enquired about this ICAEW route.
One has to adpot following procedure to apply for ICAEW membership via CCAB route
1) One need to have at least five yrs post membership experience. (Which is too much post five yrs eperience mean 8 yrs of total experience)
2) One has to write examinations of experience (this is not the difficult thing, As i have seen sample to examinations of experience. if u r ACCA qualified with total of 3 yrs experiece u can easy pass it, for this exams u dont need to go to exam hall, u can write the exam in ur owm place and take take as much time as u want, this exam is just like fiiling the application form for job which one will apply after have 3 to 4 yrs experience).
3) Ur application must be supported by two ICAEW current members.
I must say that accounatncy profession in EU is changing very rapidly and in next 15 to 20 yrs in EU they will have only one accounatncy institute.
Must wait another 2 to 3 yrs and see how much ICAEW will be relaxed towrads ACCA, as in UK ACCA is real threat for ICAEW.
I tell u that my real brother is ICAEW member he works in industry and never worried to apply for ICAP membership. If u are ACCA qualified with UK experience then in industry in Pakistan u salary will be the same as ICAEW member.
Kind Regards
