So now the CA certification, should be renamed to a low qualifying cert since it requires three years of experience and one capstone paper.
The APP will be available for 2 years, starting from April 2024, and eligible students can take the Singapore CA Qualification (SCAQ) professional programme module exams while studying for accountancy programmes at the universities.

Is only for 2 years

That's why smart people would never take the exams. Pay so much for exam fees and enrolment classes just to get a certification which was given free to all local uni, acca, cpa australia and icpas people via a 5 day workshop. U are considered lucky to have completed all 5. There are people who keep failing and have dumped in a lot of money to isca until they realised it wasnt worthed it and stopped.

I agree with your logic, but you and I are not HR and hence not in a position to confirm such information to prospective applicants. They should ask their HR directly.

Once you signed a contract, you have agreed to the stated compensation.

I think it is fine. You need to “pay back” for not studying harder when you are younger.

Whereas those who studied hard to school have more career opportunities.

Which also has zero value add to Accountancy sector growth where Gen Z only wants instant gratification with low working hours and ease of obtaining CA qualification

Thus we end up killing the accountancy sector and now backtracking

Audit Sector - race to the bottom for lowest fees, your enemies are your compatriots in commercial who strive to block your fee increases

Commercial - you are cost center and 1 headcount to do 3 person work
