To the attention of James,

I would like to know what Level 3 and Level 4 amounts to other "popular and known" qualification like ACCA, CIMA, CIFA,AAT,CAT ?

Even though the issue i am facing has already been addressed, i am still being asked the question.

Kind Regards,

Nathaliexxx

Hi N K Books,

As far aas I know these are lower qualifications than those. I am at Open University and in November I am studying the Professional Certificate in accounting for 1 year, and that certificate has exemptions on 5 papers of the CIMA. Also it is equal to B190 introduction to Bookkeeping and Accounting from the open university, of which I have done this course. Hope this helps 

Kind Regards

Hello Nathalie

I asked a similar question to James regarding exemptions on level 4 due to me being CIMA qualified.

He said that hasn't been worked out yet but it should be in the next few months.  So I guess once that has been decided, the level or equivalent can be worked out versus other qualifications.

Hope that helps answer your question

Kind regards

Hi Everyone,

Thanks to Sandra and Paula for replying...

Your response help. It would be more helpful if i had a response from ICB.
i presume i have to wait for few months.

Best of Luck to everyone,

I am sure that James will reply to you once the offices re-open - you did post your question on Good Friday - maybe he has a life (unlike me!) and is off enjoying himself for the Easter weekend!

I did ICB levels 1 and 2 and then began ACCA, so long as your over 25 you can join as a mature student and bypass AAT, CAT etc.  ICB qualifications don't qualify for exemptions in any accountancy qualifications.  ICB is a good foundation and gives you the basics before starting an accounting qualifications.
