Why ACCA With BAF?

Every year, over 45 lakh commerce graduate students look for a job in India. A professional qualification like ACCA simultaneously with your Bachelor’s Degree in Accounting & Finance (popularly known as BAF) gives a head start to your career. You can easily achieve this with graduation by fitting this into your lifestyle due to flexible exam structure. Thus, at age 20 you join the professional workforce in the best of the organizations with a good start salary and take your career as high as you aspire to C Suite titles like CFO, CEO amongst others.

Here is what our Director, Harsh Surana, has to say about it –

In today’s era, you cannot live your dream career by just being a Graduate. For instance, if you hunt for a job after graduation, you may get a role like an accountant or a junior role of an auditor with menial salaries being offered, which cannot suffice your requirements. To get the best of your career, you need to have a professional qualification which is of your liking. We are making a safe assumption here that if you have chosen BAF as your graduation stream, then probably you have a keen interest in Accounting & Finance. To reach a position where you have aimed, you need to complete your professional qualification alongside your graduation.

Benefits of ACCA With BAF

ACCA and BAF have multiple subjects in common like Accounting, Finance, Costing, Tax etc. But ACCA has a greater number of subjects such as Strategic Management, Leadership and Business Reporting which gives you aid to be a professional in your field. ACCA is a case and application-based qualification where you get to learn the global perspective which BAF alone doesn’t have. ACCA can be completed in 3 years alongside your BAF and is a globally recognized qualification by employers and students; which means that you become eligible to work across various countries.

The most important benefit of ACCA is that, as soon as you complete ACCA, you can land on your dream job of working with an MNC or the Big 4. The ACCA qualification doesn’t limit you to one sector or any particular role. As an ACCA member, you will open doors to opportunities of working across sectors all over the world, be it the:
