The Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) has opened an office in Phnom Penh to provide support for the rapidly growing number of its students and members in the country.

ACCA has signed a joint examination scheme with the Khmer Institute of Certified Public Accountants and Auditors that enables hundreds of young people to have access to an internationally recognized accountancy qualification.

Hin Sopheap, country manager, said ACCA was working to ensure that the best type of training was available for finance professionals. So far, ACCA had trained more than 300 Cambodian students.
