    Hey Guys,

    I've just finished the part 3 tax exams and was wondering if their are any other qualifications worth following up out their? I did the FAE's last year but specialised in tax. I was thinking of doing the audit elective so I could get an audit cert someday. I work in a medium practice so I reckon Ive covered the minimum audit experience. I've heard its dear enough though. Would the money be better spent on something else like QFA?

    Any Ideas?

    are you not sick of exams!!!

    After i finished the ACA and then the tax exams, I never wanted to see another exam in my life :)

    I have a friend who did the above like me and did the QFA after it. I think it is worth getting it if you are looking to go down the financial adviser route/banking etc. I would look at a different course unless this is where you wanted to direct your career.

    There are apparently a number of good post-grad diplomas available from CAI. Another friend of mine did the insolvency one and thought it was excellent. The IFRS one is also meant to be interesting but they are quite pricey
