Pre- and post-qualification standards

SAICA’s business model consists of recruiting top-performing students at schools across South Africa to enter a learning path delivered through accredited providers (both through programmes SAICA accredits at universities around South Africa and training offices where practical experience is gained). Through these programmes, SAICA is able to ensure that anyone who qualifies for SAICA membership – whether as a CA(SA) or AGA(SA) – has developed, to the appropriate standard, the relevant entry-level competencies (knowledge, skills, ethics and attitudes) to perform the duties expected of them as well as fostered a culture of lifelong learning that enables them to enhance and maintain their professional competence, and remain relevant into the future.
