The CGMA Competency Framework is designed to help management accountants and their employers understand the knowledge requirements and assess the skills needed for both current and desired roles. The framework is underpinned by the need for objectivity, integrity and ethical behaviour, and includes a continuous commitment to acquire new skills and knowledge. The CGMA Competency Framework is the foundation that will demonstrate the relevance and capabilities of a CGMA designation holder as a trusted finance and business strategist.
The CGMA Competency Framework was developed through three phases of research: face-to-face interviews, round tables and an online survey. The participants ranged from finance and non-finance staff in mid to senior levels, covering diverse industries from both the private and public sectors.
