MBA and DBA Programs

ICMA members can undertake further academic studies after completing their Certified Management Accountant (CMA) credentials by undertaking the MBA, CMA program at Calwest University. Calwest aims at providing affordable high-quality education to its candidates, so as they can work towards attaining a recognised degree at a substantially lower cost that that usually associated with such degree programs.

ICMA has developed a special relationship with Calwest so that CMA members can get recognition for their prior learning by paying a $200 per course ‘Credit Verification Fee’ for 8 courses as a block based on the course content studied to become a CMA.

As such CMAs would need to undertake only 4 Courses at Calwest: (1) Business Ethics (2) Global Issues, (3) Critical Thinking and (4) Philosophy to obtain an MBA. These courses can be done online for $800 per course. The full fees that a CMA member will be up for to get a Calwest MBA are as follows:
