Start your journey towards qualifying as a Chartered Accountant. The Eduvos Postgraduate Bridging Programme in Accounting (CTA 1) allows students entry into our SAICA-accredited Postgraduate Diploma in Accounting (PGDA/CTA 2).  
 
Are you interested in pursuing a career as a Chartered Accountant, but your undergraduate degree is not accredited by SAICA? If so, the Eduvos CTA 1 could be the perfect solution to help you achieve your career goals. The programme is aimed at students who do not yet qualify for our SAICA Accredited PGDA / CTA 2, and offers a fast track into the Eduvos PGDA to qualify as a Chartered Accountant.  
 
The programme provides comprehensive video lectures and tutorials, summary notes and past exam practice questions on all subject areas including:  
 
Financial reporting
Management Accounting and Finance
Auditing, Governance and Ethics
Taxation  
 
The CTA 1 is delivered 100% online, through Eduvos unique Distance Self Paced Online (DSO) mode of delivery. This self paced mode of delivery means that you can start studying at any time during the year and finish your studies flexibly at a pace that suits you between 6 to 18 months.
 
Although we are a new programme, we have a dedicated team of lecturers who have years of experience in supporting students on their journey to qualifying as Chartered Accountants. Our team have all taught on some of the country’s top programmes, producing some of the highest pass rates in the SAICA board exams.
