We are happy to offer the CIMA qualification along with a BBM degree at BBD University,

Lucknow to help students develop analytical, application oriented, decision making skills, rather than just theoretical knowledge of accounting. We believe this partnership is an important milestone for CIMA and management accounting in India.”
