HOW TO QUALIFY

Management accountants are trusted to guide critical business decisions and drive strong business performance. They combine financial expertise and business acumen to achieve sustainable business success. AICPA and CIMA – two of the world’s most prestigious accounting bodies – are committed to elevating the role of management accountants in business and government by establishing the CGMA designation.

The route to becoming a CGMA professional for both organisations includes a combination of exam and experience and an educational level equivalent to a master’s degree.
