"I have over 12 years of experience working in the finance area. I always look for opportunities for professional development in order to meet the challenges that my career presents. I first heard about the benefits and the quality of the ACCA Qualification from my manager at PwC, who had already taken the exams herself and recommended the programme as a way to develop further my knowledge and skills. As I have ambitious plans for my career, I decided to start on the journey to becoming ACCA qualified so as to improve my technical knowledge and practice applying it in real life situations. The more I progress with the ACCA programme, the better are my decisions and the results I achieve at work. The combination of my continued effort, my challenging work environment and my dedication makes me very excited about what I can achieve in the future. The ACCA Qualification prepares students for C-level positions, as the skills it develops (including accounting, financial planning and performance management) are essential to lead a company. I encourage everyone who wants a successful career and more in life to challenge yourself and take this journey." “It’s going to happen, because I am going to make it happen.” – Harvey Specter

“I began my ACCA journey in March 2015. Currently I am working with Natura’s financial division. To support the development of the new businesses and product innovation, I needed to strengthen my accounting skills. ACCA helped in the best manner possible. It not only made me fortify specialised financial skills such as cost composition, losses and working capital, it also empowered my ethics. In the ever-advancing corporate landscape, accountants hold more power and influence strategic decision making. They are not just controllers but governance ‘keepers’ and valuable generation enablers as well. To edge ahead in such a competitive environment, you must be attentive to the changing dynamics in the world's economy, demographics, political and social scenarios. And maintaining good technical skills related to finance and accounting goes a long way in career growth. I would highly recommend ACCA to everyone who is not sure about which professional journey they wish to embark on.”

“My name is Daniel Ramires and I work with credit analysis at Banco CCB Brasil, focusing on large companies, whose main responsibilities are: Analysis of Financial Statements, briefing on the client's strategy and the risk of their business; prepare technical reports related to credit limit requests, write and share credit opinions with the Chief Risk Officer, among others Thus, in order to boost my career, I started a financial English course at SHP Financial Training, which I was able to increase my knowledge of English, especially financial vocabulary. In addition, the course was a unique experience in which I was able to exchange knowledge with classmates who work in the financial market. In light of the above, I strongly recommend this course for those who wish to improve their knowledge of English.”

“The course is very good and practical. It presents very important concepts that are not directly addressed in the standards. The conceptual basis that is provided is relevant for interpreting and applying IFRS. I recommend it to professionals who use financial information as an input for their analysis, such as appraisers and investment analysts, as it provides excellent material for understanding financial statements prepared under IFRS. The online course is very good and flexible, making it possible to take it anytime and anywhere.”
