Both courses require a similar amount of time for completion. For ACCA, candidates need to clear 14 professional exams coupled with 3 years of supervised accountancy experience. If the candidates can manage their work and studies simultaneously, then they can complete the ACCA qualifications in around 3 years. On the other hand, CIMA candidates also need to complete 16 papers and 3 years of relevant work experience to complete the CIMA qualification successfully.

So, even in CIMA, candidates can complete the course in 3 years if they balance their work and studies well. A candidate needs to pass high school to be eligible for the ACCA examination. In contrast, the CIMA exams need a candidate to graduate in any discipline from a recognized university. It is to be noted that candidates are eligible for exemption from papers based on their educational background [more details on this can be retrieved from the respective official websites].

The subjects it covers are business accounting, management accounting, information management, finance management, strategic marketing management, etc. Given the historical passing rates, it is fair to say that both courses are moderately difficult.
