Old vs New IRBA qualification path

This is an infographic I created to simplify the new path to qualification as an RA.

I’ve also written an article with more detail.

If you can relate, or have a query...

Did you know that mindset is one of the biggest things that could be holding you back with your studies and you don't even know it?

Students are struggling to pass SAICA's ITC exam, and their CTA / PGDA exams. WHY?
So many students ask me what's happening. What's going wrong?
Take a look at this and consider HOW you're studying

What's up with ITC & CTA?

Most students I work with are absolutely committed to this qualification journey, and you know how much I respect that commitment. :)
But, I want to talk about some reasons that we might potentially be a little 'too' obsessed about getting this qualification.
This is intended to provide perspective, some thought-provoking discussions, and for those who are finding themselves not moving forward after years and years... I want you to think of some stuff.
And you KNOW I'm always here for you.

Comments over Coffee: Why are we so obsessed with being a CA(SA)?

We can change the level of difficulty of an exam WITHOUT changing the technical levels... watch how this happens.

Students are really quick to evaluate their technical knowledge as lacking when they're studying... and sure, there is SO much to know, and there will always be stuff we've forgotten, aren't sure of, always struggled with... but are these the REASONS we're not passing questions? Is it this stuff that's making exams more difficult? Are the exams expecting higher levels of technical knowledge? In a lot of cases, the technical levels in the solutions are manageable... but the case studies do NOT seem that way!
