The Southern African Institute of Business Accountants, SAIBA, has contracted SA Accounting Academy to assist it to run a program to help Unemployed Commerce Graduates to achieve the professional designation of Business Accountant BA (SA), as registered with SAQA. Successful graduates will start with a 3-month online training program, then become employed within SAIBA member accounting firms, complete the requirements to become a BA (SA) over the next 6 to 9 months, and by March/April 2023, become fully registered Business Accountants.

This program is for African Black Historically Disadvantaged Individuals and is sponsored by The Finance and Accounting Services Seta (Fasset).

Qualifications (Some experience needed)

oYou must be a Commerce Graduate from a recognized tertiary institute in South Africa, (BCom, BCom, BAcc, BTech or National Diploma). Tertiary institute means a University or University of Technology. This includes CTA or Honours students.
