For CA Students, the three main components to obtaining your CA designation are education, practical experience and evaluation. These three elements ensure that, when you earn your CA designation, you will have acquired all the competencies that the marketplace demands from a Chartered Accountant.
The education will provide you with the sound base of knowledge you will need to develop the skills and the values necessary to demonstrate competence. Your practical work experience, under the supervision of experienced CAs in a CA Training Office (CATO), is essential in helping you develop the skills, the attributes and the values of a competent CA. Evaluation and assessment are central to determining the competence of CA students.
All CA candidates must sit the Uniform Evaluation (UFE). This three-day evaluation gives you the opportunity to demonstrate your professional competency by responding to simulated business challenges of the kinds likely to be faced by newly qualified CAs.
