Chitkara University, Punjab in collaboration with Zell Education will offer MBA-ACCA online and BCom-ACCA offline integrated courses to its students. Students can choose integrated courses with ACCA certification under the terms of this new partnership. The ACCA qualification is the accounting certification for financial professionals that provides students with the necessary skills, knowledge and concepts to be successful in the field.
The platform also includes an MBA in International Finance and Accounting (MBA+ACCA), allowing university students to earn both degrees (MBA and ACCA) in two years as they qualify for ACCA waivers. The agreement enables Chitkara University students to equip themselves with industry-ready certifications in addition to their university degrees.

An MoU was signed by Dr Sandhir Sharma, Professor and Vice-Chancellor of Chitkara University, and Anant Bengani, Co-Founder and Director of Zell Education, to formally establish the partnership. Dr. Sandhir Sharma said: “We already offer qualifications and certifications as bestowed by NAAC A+ and our relationship with Zell Education confirms our mission to provide a world-class education to our students. An opportunity to become ACCA certified while pursuing an MBA or BCom is an excellent avenue for aspirants who want to get a head start in their professional journey.”
Anant Bengani said, “Partnering with Chitkara University creates a unique proposition for students who wish to gain globally recognized certifications alongside their university education. MBA-ACCA online and BCom-ACCA offline integrated courses are designed to prepare students for industry as soon as they graduate.”
Meanwhile, we use thousands of words like ITI, OFC and MBA in our daily lives and we rarely wonder what they mean. While ACCA stands for the Association of Certified Chartered Accountants, a global body that provides students with a “Certified Chartered Accountant” certification, the full form of an MBA is a Master of Business Administration. After completing the MBA, graduates can find a variety of jobs in diverse industries such as banking, consulting, finance, human resources, marketing, and operations.
