well you have all mentioned very good certifications but concerning the acca and ican dispute, agreed acca is recognized internationally but do u realize it is not accepted in the strongest country of the world, USA, u have to write the american CPA to be recognized, and besides acca came up with a new rule that u need to have a performance evaluation of 3 years before u can be certified, thats crap as far as im concerned, and besides be proud to be a champion locally, so ill still put ICAN among the top certifications

marosky:

mustay it is as if u o r someone close 2 u has failed ican a couple of times.i have friends working with ican abroad.ican is globally recognised.it is true that cpa and acca are more globally recognized.if u don't like ican u can consider anan then you will know that 'khaki no be leather'

i don't think there is a general heihrachy in terms of proffesional qualifications. i believe the heihrachy is only relevant to your field of study (acca, ican for accountants, etc.)

meanwhile, for proffesionals in the finance and mortgage industry, i am thinkin of acquiring a certification in mortgage advice and practice (cemap). i was wondering if someone has an in-depth knowledge on this particular certification and the prsopects for someone with this certificate in nigeria.
