The Master of Professional Accounting (MPA) is for those from non-accounting backgrounds who wish to pursue a career in the accounting industry. It equips students with knowledge and skills in accounting and related fields to gain employment in a variety of organisations in public practice and industry. Accredited with the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA), CPA Australia (CPA), and the Institute of Chartered Accountants (ICAA),  our students are able to easily articulate into these professional programs. The National Institute of Accountants (NIA) recognises that the MPA meets membership requirements for Associate status. Successful graduates qualify for eight exemptions from ACCA membership examinations. ACCA is recognised as the leading global professional accountancy body.
