Why CIMA is different
CIMA is the only international professional qualification with a syllabus and examinations that focus solely on the education and training of management accountants in business. We have clearly set out the reasons why CIMA is different in The CIMA difference (PDF 689KB), a report based on the results of a comparative study of nine professional accountancy syllabi and examinations, including CIMA's own.
Why CIMA? (PDF 1.77MB) provides more information about why CIMA is the choice for successful businesses.
CIMA members and students are our strongest supporters. Interviews are published in our case studies where selected members have shared with us the reasons why they believe the CIMA qualification is most relevant to their needs.
