Shanghai, 2008 — Shanghai EasyFinance Enterprise Management Consulting Co., Ltd. (EasyFinance) has begun cooperation with the Institute of Management Accountants (IMA) in continuing professional education (CPE). EasyFinance has become an IMA CPE course provider in China, and eligible finance and management training courses offered by the company may qualify for IMA continuing education credits.
The cooperation connects international management accounting education resources with the training needs of Chinese enterprises, offering finance professionals additional opportunities to continue learning and update their professional knowledge.
Continuing Education Supports Professional Development
As Chinese enterprises grow and management requirements become more demanding, the work of finance departments is extending beyond accounting, financial reporting and supervision. Budget preparation, cost management, operating analysis, internal control and decision support are becoming increasingly important responsibilities.
Finance professionals must keep abreast of management practices, broaden their knowledge and develop the ability to address practical business problems. Continuing education is therefore an important part of professional development.
IMA has long promoted the development of management accounting and the accounting profession. Its CPE framework encourages professionals to maintain and improve their knowledge through ongoing study. Under the cooperation, IMA members attending eligible EasyFinance courses in China may record the applicable education credits toward their CPE requirements.
Bringing Management Accounting into Enterprise Practice
Established in 2004, EasyFinance specializes in corporate financial management training. Its curriculum is developed around the practical needs of finance professionals and business managers, covering areas such as financial analysis, budgeting, cost control, internal control and financial decision-making.
For enterprises, professional training is valuable not only because it builds technical knowledge, but also because it helps employees understand how business activities affect costs, profits and cash, and apply financial methods in everyday management.
Management accounting focuses on using financial and operating information for planning, control and decision-making. Through its CPE cooperation with IMA, EasyFinance aims to strengthen its courses by bringing together international professional knowledge and examples drawn from Chinese enterprises.
Strengthening Professional Exchange and Training
Chinese companies are participating increasingly in domestic and international markets, raising expectations for both technical financial competence and managerial understanding. Finance professionals need sound accounting knowledge, familiarity with business operations and the ability to offer useful analysis to management.
The cooperation provides a basis for greater exchange in professional education. EasyFinance will continue developing practical financial management courses and case-based teaching suited to the needs of companies in China.
By connecting its training programs with an international continuing education framework, EasyFinance seeks to broaden learning opportunities and support the application of management accounting in Chinese enterprises.
Easy Finance has supported management accounting, strategic finance and enterprise AI capability building since 2004.
