ICWAI recognition by NARIC

[Manav]

Hi, does anyone know if ICWAI is recognized by NARIC as a Bachelor's or Masters degree.

Hi Manav,

In my opinion ICWA is just a professional qualification and under the HSMP criteria you just sdon't get any points for that. Although I am a qualified CWA and did send my degree documents but still I never asked for any points and had my bachelors degree for the points. I don't think CWA, CA or CS is considered either graduate or post graduate degrees.

Hi, Thanks for the reply. However I think professional qualifications like CA do get recognized as Masters as i,ve seen it on the websites of a number of Immigration agencies.

However i wasnt to sure if the same would apply to CWA from India.

As you would be aware the CWA is the equivalent of CIMA in UK.

I don't know what do you actually mean by recongnition but I am sure you don't get any extra points if you are a CA/ CWA. Yes you can mention that as your professional qualification and can then refer to that as your skill sets while proving your eligibility for job.

CWA's can be considered part qualified CIMA as there are some exemptions in CIMA if you have completed CWA.
