My blood is green!
My journey from BCTA, to PGDA, and now I have just passed the APC professional programme, all with IAS. Changed my life. I had given up on the dream, and a previous student at my firm told me to just call and chat to them. from my first interaction I knew this would be different. Thank you for taking me the whole journey. I would never have done it without the team. Every one of them brings their own piece, and it just works. Thank you team IAS! I will always have green blood! :-) Karabo... soon to be CA!

No Support/Understanding by Admin for unforseen Circumstances
Lack of support for those who are working and studying at the same time. Should you fall sick on a test/exam date (,even if you provide proof). Just know that they will never give you an opportunity to write which is absolutely unfair. Rather consider Milpark Melissa Knight has no mercy at all - No understanding that unforseen circumstances to happen! Life happens to all of us!

How IAS PGDA program helped me add value to my role as a group Financial Accountant
At my very first encounter at IAS our professor said " At IAS, we want you to be a CA that adds value, and I must say that resonated very much with me. Not only did the program equip me with real life skills but it gave me confidence in applying myself in my current role as a Group Financial Accountant. CTA is not an easy journey, and it requires hard work. Now hard work matched with the great lectures builds a CA that is not only book smart but someone who can add value to the business as whole is magic. Their support in your journey is absolutely amazing. I am so grateful to my friends who introduced me to IAS and will forever be grateful for their quality program.

My experience as Namibian and part-time student
I was a January 2022 intake at IAS, the struggle of trying to battle between studies and being an audit trainee was not easy. The CTA journey feels like one long year that is never coming to end and being in Namibia could have made things worse but the support of the IAS team made it seem as if virtual classes were face-to-face. The team is accessible at all time with two mentors assigned to each students throughout the year. With consultation timetable suitable for both flexi (part-time) and full time students, with responses to emails within a reasonable timeframe to ensure that you can proceed with your studies effortlessly. They are truly there to hear and talk to you, I would recommend anyone who would like to pursue their CTA to do it the Institute of Accounting Science. It will be a great, different and wonderful experience, no matter the distance or mode of studying you choose.

IAS - the worst
The worst. These people don't respond to your emails or phone calls, even during business hours. Expect a response after weeks or even a month. I only get automated messages regarding registration and whatnot. It's a private institution after all. I also read some bad reviews in Facebook, under CA inspired. The only nice thing here is the bridging course which you can do in 6 months thereafter your CTA. Anything else, the worst.

My experience at IAS and why I would recommend IAS to all accounting students
I completed my Postgraduate Diploma in Accounting Sciences (CTA) at IAS in 2021, and it was a great learning experience. IAS has the most helpful lecturers, trainees and other staff members, and they always respond quickly on their emails. CTA is not an easy year, but the lecturers at IAS really help you to understand the theory, and also how to apply the theory to more practical examples. I would definitely recommend any student to join IAS. Using the IAS approach in your CTA year, and when you are preparing for your first board exam (ITC), you will be successful. I doubt that there is any other university that looks after their students and helps their students the way IAS does. It was an absolute pleasure to study at IAS.

I Wish I Could Give More Than 5 Stars
Impeccable. Fantastic. Incredible. Superb. These words merely scratch the surface of how amazing IAS truly is. It is no secret that the path to achieving your CTA will be one that is rocky, bumpy and will try and throw you off course. However, IAS is there to guide your way to success, setting up a beautifully paved road with all the signs you need to get you to your destination. However, it is still your responsibility to stay on that path. The lecturers at IAS are some of the best I have ever had. Zani makes you completely forget that auditing is a relatively boring subject to be lectured. Which in my opinion is pretty impressive. Magda and Nicola are both walking talking legislations, I wouldn't be surprised if they respectively recite the entirety of the tax and IFRS legislations every night before sleeping. Chantal showed absolute dedication towards helping me with every little problem I presented her with. Gary ("Oy!!!"), the out of box thinking he is capable of equipping you with is truly unmatched. I am so grateful that I was given the opportunity to be a student at IAS and I cannot recommend them enough.
