No training, no future

Article Abstract:

The continued survival of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW) depends on success in training future members. This makes it imperative for the organization to implement an education and training system that addresses important issues. One of these is the need to cut training costs while continuing to provide students with quality training. Such a goal can be achieved using various measures, including adopting a more flexible approach to timing examinations, eliminating duplications and finding ways to minimize exam failures. Another issue that needs attention is enhancing the relevance of the knowledge and skills developed by accounting students preparing for the ACA qualification. The ICAEW also has to ensure that the training it provides will prepare accountants for the globalization of business.
