Maani and sohail, thanks a lot for replying. But guys one more thing. I beleive that this is a debatable topic, but i just need a general opinion as to whether an ACCA professional is treated equal to an ICAEW Chartered Accountant. I mean tehchnically and market value wise do they both stand together. Even a friend of mine who is studying in UK has told me that ACCA and CIMA are really very populart and u get to see a lot of vacancies for these qualifications. Its really popular there and gaining popularity also.
Please do express ur views about an ACCA professional and a C.A. And are these qualifications equal in every sense.
Take care guys. And do reply.

Dear Arif,

I think it is very difficult to compare ACCA & ACA or CA (Pak). And this would most certainly lead to a roit over here with everyone justifying his/her own qualification.

ACA is no doubt the supreme accounting qualification in the UK. It is much easier to do ACCA then ACA. Furthermore, since ur location is QATAR, I would remind u that unless u are a british resident, doing ACA from ICAEW is quite difficult for u. This is because firstly you will have to move to the UK. Secondly, it will be very difficult for u to get internship in a decent (big 4) firm in the UK after u have completed ur foundation studies. Because the big-4 over there like to hire british nationals first & it is a lot of hassle for them to hire trainess from other countries.

ACCA on the other hand is quite easier & cheaper, as it can also be done from ur home country (or the middle-east region). The training requirements are also quite relaxed.

For further info look @ earlier posts pointed out by desert sleet

Cheers,
AvgJoe
