School of Finance launches new projects in collaboration with accounting professional bodies and associations.

In September - October School of Finance held series of meetings and discussions with the representatives of AICPA-CIMA leading to the collaborations in various fields, including development of the online programs, research, teaching and professional development.

• American Institute of CPAs (AICPA) represents the CPA profession regarding rule-making and standard-setting, and serves as an advocate before legislative bodies, public interest groups and other professional organizations. The AICPA develops standards for audits of private companies and other services by CPAs; provides educational guidance materials to its members; develops and grades the Uniform CPA Examination; and monitors and enforces compliance with the profession’s technical and ethical standards.

In collaboration with the AICPA, School of Finance will design and launch professional certifications in Business Analytics, Forensics and Managerial Accounting (as part of CIMA qualification).
