Usually, how to choose depends on your own future planning. If you take ACCA as a stepping stone, it is good to apply for a job directly. If you take ACCA as a way to improve yourself, then you might as well continue to study. In addition, the postgraduate acca exam can be exempted from 9 subjects, which can shorten the time.
ACCA cannot replace the postgraduate entrance examination:
ACCA is a certificate to prove your professional level, and graduate education is a proof of your learning and research ability. The two properties are completely different. Whether to take the postgraduate entrance exam or not depends on the future planning. It is necessary to say that in the four major middle schools, the salary of employees with graduate degrees is higher than that of undergraduates. Of course, this is only the initial stage, and the future depends on individual ability.
ACCA and postgraduate entrance examination do not conflict:
Many students who decide to conflict between ACCA and postgraduate entrance examination simply feel that there is conflict in preparation time. In fact, ACCA can prepare from the first year of college. If it goes smoothly, you can finish all the courses in your third year of college. In this state, you can prepare for the postgraduate entrance examination, which is very ideal.
First, let's look at the applicability of ACCA. ACCA is the largest accounting organization in the world at present, with 100000 members and 200000 students in 160 countries. Apart from the UK, ACCA is mainly recognized in Commonwealth countries. In China, ACCA has gained more and more public recognition since it entered China in the early 1990s. Foreign enterprises, foreign accounting firms and overseas listed enterprises with European and American backgrounds have been widely recognized. Of course, due to the high salary level of ACCA in general and the difference between the accounting system learned and that in China, ACCA does not seem to have a great use in state-owned enterprises and private enterprises at present.
ACCA is an enhanced version of the general accounting profession, which can engage in accounting, auditing, taxation, etc. These are very mainstream choices. Other choices include consulting, investment banking, banking, etc.
ACCA is known as the golden rice bowl of global accountants. ACCA members are engaged in auditing, investment consulting and bankruptcy enforcement. Their salaries are generally high, and most of them work in global multinational companies, multinational banks, accounting firms and other enterprises and institutions. ACCA qualification is widely recognized internationally, especially by EU legislation and many national company laws. So it can be said that with ACCA membership, you will have a "passport" to work around the world.
ACCA courses are developed and designed according to the actual requirements of the current business society for accountants, with special attention to training students' analytical ability and decision-making and judgment ability under complex conditions. Systematic and high-quality training provides students with real talent and learning. After learning, students can adapt to various environments and make members become senior financial management experts with comprehensive management quality.
ACCA members are engaged in financial and financial management in the financial departments of industrial and commercial enterprises, (four major) audit/accounting firms, financial institutions, and financial and tax departments. Many members hold senior positions in large companies around the world (financial managers, chief financial officers, CFOs, and even presidents and CEOs). ACCA senior lecturers believe that the earlier you get the ACCA professional qualification, the better the job threshold and competitive advantage you can get!
