What will set you apart

Accreditation

The Chartered Institute of Business Accountants (CIBA) is a SAQA-accredited professional body (Professional Body ID 874). That means the training you complete through us carries real weight in the profession and supports your journey toward recognised practice status.

When you successfully pass the final exam, you’ll receive a Certificate of Completion issued by CIBA. This certificate proves you’re competent in analysing, preparing, and reporting financial statements for legal entities, related entities, and consolidated groups—aligned with both International Standards and South African regulatory requirements. In short, it shows you can handle real-world financial reporting without putting yourself or your clients at risk.

This certificate is issued under the National Policy for the Implementation of the Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) as authorised by SAQA, and is recognised by CIBA as meeting the competency standards approved for admission as a Chartered Business Accountant in Practice (CBAP).

If you’re serious about standing out, charging for compliance expertise, and building a respected practice, this level of evidence-based competency matters.
