Why Choose Spires’ Institute of Certified Bookkeepers (ICB) Tutoring?
Why study for ICB certification?
The Institute of Certified Bookkeepers qualification is a globally recognized standard for accounting and bookkeeping qualifications. It has been in existence since 1997 and provides excellence in more than 70 countries worldwide, while maintaining high standards of accounting practice through accredited examinations.
Certification by the ICB provides employers with the confidence that you have acquired the necessary skills to work as a certified accountant or auditor in a business of any size or scale. ICB graduates are experts in using modern accounting systems, such as computerized accounting software packages like MYOB, Sage, etc., and are also familiar with manual procedures that involve reconciling accounts based on bank statements.
Many claim that accountancy is an old profession, but in truth it is one that is rapidly evolving. With electronic transactions now the norm, it is becoming increasingly important for businesses to have experienced professionals keeping a watchful eye on their books. However, the work has become much less tedious and more analytical.
Another great benefit of becoming an accountant through the ICB is that you have the luxury of starting your own accounting business. For that, you would need a license from an AML supervisor. Fortunately, the ICB will provide you with a supervisor if you are a member. Even if you do not have any experience yet, you only need to apply for a Practice License.
What university degree is ICB useful for?
As the old saying goes, "An investment in knowledge pays the best interest", so it is always important to add more qualifications to your name. Not only will this add value to your CV, but it will also show potential employers that you are a motivated individual who is willing to keep learning.
Here are some certifications you can achieve after completing your ICB certification:
Chartered Certified Accountant (ACCA)
Certified Financial Planner (CFP)
Certified Management Accountant (CMA) certification
Chartered Alternative Investment Analyst (CAIA)
Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA)
Chartered Financial Consultant (ChFC)
Chartered Global Management Accountant (CGMA)
Financial Risk Manager (FRM®) certification
Financial Modelling and Valuation Analyst (FMVA) certification
What careers can studying ICB lead to?
Bookkeeping is a profession that dates back thousands of years. And there is a reason why it is still as important today, as it was then. Simply put, it’s the most basic requirement for any business, of any size to run.
Here are some career options for those who undertake the ICB certification:
Accounting bookkeeper
Budget officer
Senior bookkeeper
Accounting Supervisor
Project Accountant
Staff Accountant
Cost Accountant
Administrative Assistant
Accounting Secretary
Internal Audit Director
How does ICB help with Certified Public Accountant (CPA) certification?
The CPA is the designation for individuals who are qualified to practise as certified public accountants. It gives them advanced knowledge and skills in accounting and business law, as well as insight into the professional challenges of accounting firms.
As a certified public accountant, you may think you can get by without a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) certification, but there are a number of reasons why it is important for accountants to become CPAs.
First, it is common knowledge that an accountant can be considered an accountant, but an accountant cannot be an accountant without proper certification. This means that CPA would open new doors for you along with ICB certification.
These two professions are closely related, but they cover different aspects of accounting. For example, while accounting teaches you how to record all of your company's purchases and sales, bookkeeping teaches you how to use this data and incorporate it into business decisions. These financial insights can make you seem extremely valuable to any employer.
As a CPA, you will have job security and high earning potential, and enjoy many opportunities for advancement and professional growth. You will also enjoy challenging and responsible work that includes auditing, tax consulting, financial analysis, corporate overhead coverage analysis, and marketing consulting. Tasks not normally undertaken by accountants.
