CIMA offers the most relevant international accounting qualification for business. We are the world’s leading and largest professional body of management accountants.
We asked business finance leaders from around the world to share their insights into how CIMA Chartered Management Accountants create value for their organisations. Hear their thoughts.
Why CIMA is different
Most accounting qualifications train people to work in private practice, working on external audit and tax issues.
CIMA prepares people for a career in business. It teaches skills for strategic advice, managing risk and making key decisions.
CIMA’s value to business
Independent research by the Bath University School of Management contrasted the CIMA syllabus and exams with those of eight other bodies and compared our business focus with theirs. Read the CIMA difference (PDF 689KB).
The research found that compared to the other bodies, CIMA’s syllabus consistently provides:
- more management accounting
- more business strategy
- more financial strategy.
Our syllabus is designed to deliver a strong understanding of all aspects of business so our members can contribute in many areas of an organisation.
