If you are going to go towards finance related field and find your career within
a financial institution, then you should select your studies carefully and keep in mind job industry's trend. There was a time when most of the people used to do MBA as obviously it was the most prominent finance degree a few years back. But now the trend has changed as thousands of MBAs are emerging every season. This does not mean that there is no importance of MBA or it has no worth in the market but it means that only MBA is not enough for a prominent possession in the job market.
This is being experienced by every fresh MBA. Actually there are thousands of potential competitors and one has to have something like competitive advantage in the job market to beat others and get a desired job. Now in what possible ways can a person gain distinctive competence in the job market? What and who are the people employers are looking for?
Now a day certification courses like CA, ACCA and CIMA are very well known in the market. Although CA is widely accepted and recognized degree around the globe but still Most of the students refrain from going for CA and CIMA as they are difficult to pass. However, many are going for ACCA as ACCA is easier and flexible as when compared to CA and CIMA. But still I would say that only ACCA is not enough also. There is a much better opportunity and choice. ACCA is not too difficult and one can continue doing ACCA along with MBA. So why lose this great opportunity? If you select your courses carefully and plan your studies wisely, you can be an ACCA as well as an MBA at the same time. Employers are finding those who hold such degrees. All you need to do is to find ACCA study material and
ACCA Past Papers from the internet, get registered and appear in the exams. This is the time and if its availed wisely, you can be more than sure about you bright future.
