JAKARTA, Indonesia, July 29, 2015 (Antara/PRNewswire) -- Chartered
Accountants of Ikatan Akuntan Indonesia (IAI) now have a fast track
route to membership of the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants
(CIMA), the world's largest professional body of management
accountants, through the newly implemented CIMA-IAI Strategic Programme.
As a CIMA member, they will also be awarded the Chartered Global
Management Accountant (CGMA) designation, a prestigious title jointly
conferred by CIMA and the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants (AICPA).
Chartered accountants who are good standing members of IAI with more than 10 years of relevant work experience will only need to complete the final exam of the CIMA professional qualification, where they are tested on their readiness to apply management accounting knowledge in real world business situations. Those who have less than 10 years of relevant work experience will need to complete the last four exams of the CIMA qualification.
Management Accountants play a role in the identification and exploitation of business opportunities, while at the same time managing costs and risks, ensuring successful business operations. With the rapidly evolving business environment, there is an increased demand for professional accountants in business to be strategic partners to their organisation's Chief Executive Officers and Boards.
Michael Yii, CIMA's Country Manager of Indonesia, said: "The VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex and Ambiguous) world that we are now living in has had a great impact on the transformation of the finance function towards more business partnering roles. This has created new challenges for finance professionals -- they need the skills to 'connect the dots'; to use financial and non-financial information, qualitative and predictive information to guide critical business decisions and drive strong performance. Chartered Global Management Accountants are recognised worldwide as having the skills to do so and CIMA is pleased that the CIMA-IAI Strategic Programme is now established to complement the skills of IAI members."
