ICAI

Hi,
To further enhance your skills as a Chartered Accountant, The ICAI provides an opportunity to pursue a variety of post qualification courses. Some of them which I know about are:
1. Diploma in IFRS - This can be very helpful in the current scenario as we are on the verge of converging the Indian Standards with International Financial Reporting Standards.
2. Diploma in Information Systems Audit - DISA is a pre requisite for many audit assignments which require advanced knowledge of information systems. This feather in your cap will definitely increase your value in the market.
3. Certification course on forensic accounting and fraud prevention. - I suppose not many CAs would have this skill and it will be beneficial in future.
You can search for many more post qualification courses that are announced by the ICAI on www.icai.org.

Both the courses MBA finance and ICWA (Cost Accountancy) are good in their own way.
MBA in finance is the course which will empower your knowledge in the area of finance plus in business management.
If MBA in finance (Regular) is done from a reputed institute then it can place you in a very good company or organisation as all the reputed MBA institutions provide campus placement opportunity.
But doing MBA from any institute will not enhance your career in any way.
Doing MBA from a reputed B-School is important.
For that, you need to sit and score enough in one among many of the reputed entrance examinations conduct in India.
ICWAI is also very good course to get the thorough knowledge of the cost controlling and management.
You will be eligible to apply in the 2nd level of ICWAI if you have done your graduation from a recognised university.
ICWAI candidates can also expect very good salary and position in any company. ICWAI course needs serious and regular study, only then the student can clear all the 3 levels of ICWAI.
ICWAI is regulated by one institution that is Institute of Cost and Management Accountant of India and it will surely have a center in Punjab.
The choice is yours otherwise both the courses are very good options in finance stream.
