BCom (Management Accounting)
This programme helps you to qualify one day as a chartered management accountant. With this qualification, you can become a management accountant or a financial manager. As a management accountant, you will be involved in, for instance, costing studies for the development of new products and you will participate in decisions taken on new investment opportunities.
The training of chartered management accountants
The internationally recognised professional accounting qualification of the chartered management accountant is obtained by passing the examinations of the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA), which has its head office in London. After that you have to meet the standards it sets for practical experience. The CIMA syllabus emphasises the financial skills required of an accountant and the ability to interpret and use financial information to play a crucial part in managing any business or organisation.
