ACCA is a professional cert in Accounting. In some organisations, they recognize it as a cert higher than a bachelor degree. However, pls note, not all organizations "see" it this way. ACCA is also harder to pass...I have several frens who started off with his/her acca from yr2000, and till now, have yet to pass. Most are now starting level 3.
Bachelor (Accounting) is an easier route. And easier to pass. Finding job is easier. However, if u have a dip, best is work and study at the same time...you salary will increase with experience.
Australia bachelor can lead u to CPA --> u have to take Aussie CPA (5 papers) --> then take S'pore CPA (5 papers)
Having just a dip in accounting "limits" your growth. So what that you are earning $3k, those with a degree can earn even more. E.g. my ex-boss who has a bachelor in Accounting (He is 34 this yr) and he is earning $11k a month.
It depends what u want.
Is it clearer?
walau.. i not saying earning 3k is big f**k.. i'm saying it depend on the job.. many job have higher pay but are you able to take the hardship anot?
somemore marine engineer with 3k pay is indeed low, but i just started..
see how it goes in the future...
