Testimonial from previous attendees
"I had the pleasure of completing my CMA studies via the
zoom classes with Prof Janek Ratnatunga and Dr Chris
D'Souza. The 8-hour classes (over 7 days) flew by with
great practical examples, good humour and testing
analytical scenarios. The skills gained have been
invaluable in my career, allowing me to add real value.
Post qualification completion, I changed jobs and gained a
substantial salary increase. There aren’t enough words to
express my heartfelt thanks to CMA, Prof Janek and Dr
Chris."

“I recently had the pleasure of attending the CMA
workshops virtually organised by Singapore Management
University in partnership with the ICMA. The 7-day
workshop was insightful, relevant and added much
needed skills to my financial toolkit. It aided me in getting
closer to my ambition of being a CFO by equipping me
with practical knowledge. The CMA also enabled me to
take on a new role as Head of Finance for Consumer,
Private and Business Banking Operations in Standard
Chartered Bank. This course is a must for all aspiring
CFOs.”
