Accountancy qualification conversion to Swiss accreditation

Hi everyone,


 


I was hoping to get some advice from someone in the area as I am recently moved to Geneva and I have an ACA qualifiaction from the UK. I am looking to work in the local industry in Geneva and it has been mentioned to me before that a Swiss accountancy qualification is required for certain roles by employers, even if not legally needed. I am also aware that there are conversion courses available leading to the Swiss exam to be sat in French or German (which I am fine with). Does anyone have any experience in this field and can recommend a course provider or point me in a website? I think in Swiss law I am looking for the eidgenoessischen Wirtschaftspruefer or Swiss CPA which is needed from a certain level in the Big 4 etc. Any help would be much appreciated!


 


If you need more detail please let me know!

Maybe Fiduciaire Suisse can give you advice? It's the professionnal association of fiduciary companies in Switzerland. There is the national association, http://www.treuhandsuisse.ch/fr/, and the Geneva branch, http://www.fiduciairesuisse-ge.ch/fr/liens/


Good luck
