Secondly, with passing certain IFM modules it is possible to skip the <\/em>\u00ab<em>Accounting &amp; Finance<\/em>\u00bb <em>module in the first year of training as a certified public accountant.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the module examination dispensation, EXPERTSuisse also exempts under certain conditions master graduates from one busy season. This makes it possible to finish the CPA programme within three years, which boosts the attractiveness of the IFM master program even more.<\/p>\n<p>However, MSc IFM students do not only benefit from the cooperation with EXPERTsuisse. In addition, the master programme has been accredited by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.accaglobal.com\/hk\/en.html\">ACCA<\/a> as well as by the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.imanet.org\/?ssopc=1\">Institute of Management Accountants (IMA)<\/a>. Further, graduates of the MSc IFM are qualified to join <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cimaglobal.com\/Our-locations\/Western-Europe\/\">CIMA<\/a> through an accelerated route, the CIMA Master\u2019s Gateway Assessment.
