ACA qualification

If you do the ACA and become a chartered accountant can you go into other areas of finance or are you set as an accountant for life?

you can definitely go to other areas of finance after qualifying as an ACA.
Hi @m.s124,

Thank you for your question - the ACA can take you anywhere you want to go.

Not only does it provide you with the technical knowledge needed to become an ICAEW Chartered Accountant, but it also provides you with other crucial employability skills that you can take with you wherever you go.

Feel free to check out the variety of finance opportunities that are available from Approved Training Employers on our ICAEW Training Vacancies platform.

Good luck with the next step in your career journey.

Best wishes,
ICAEW

You have a poor understanding what a company accountant does, If you can't read a balance sheet then you won't get far.
