ICAG Faculty System

 

Introduction
In this era of globalization and specialization, there is the need for our members to acquire in depth knowledge in specialized areas of accountancy practice and share the knowledge so acquired with other professional colleagues. This thought has necessitated the introduction of faculty systems in the scheme of activities of our Institute.
