CIMA members have to importantly provide evidence of CIMA’s Practical Experience Requirements (PER) in order to join the program. The PER are an essential part of the CA Qualification and CA membership application process. They complement assessments and demonstrate your ability to apply your knowledge and skills in the context of your professional experience. Hence those who don’t comply to our PER will not be eligible for the pathway. They have to prove and validate that they also have related management accounting experience.

You are not eligible for the CA special pathway if you are a member of CIMA (UK) by virtue of a mutual recognition agreement.
