Compare your options
US CMA Course vs Other Certifications
Many learners compare US CMA Course with self-study or a general degree. Use this comparison to understand how structured CMA training fits your career goals.
| Criteria | This Course US CMA Course |
Alternative 1 Self-Study Only |
Alternative 2 General Degree (e.g., B.Com, MBA) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary focus | CMA USA exam and management accounting skills | Depends entirely on books or materials chosen | Broad academic coverage across business subjects |
| Best suited for | Aspiring Finance Managers, Analysts, Controllers and Management Accountants | Highly self-disciplined candidates confident of preparing alone | Students seeking general business or commerce education |
| Exam structure | 2 parts, computer-based, flexible global exam windows | Same CMA exam but without structured training or mock feedback | Semester or year-end university exams not specific to CMA |
| Time to complete | Typically 6–9 months for both parts with guided support | Often longer due to trial-and-error and lack of clear plan | 2–3+ years and you may still pursue CMA separately |
| Career outcomes | Strong fit for mid-level finance, FP&A and management accounting roles in KSA & GCC. | Possible to clear CMA but with higher risk of multiple attempts. | Broad exposure but often insufficient alone for strategic finance roles. |
This comparison highlights why structured CMA USA training with EduDelphi helps you qualify faster and with greater confidence than self-study or a generic degree alone.

The US CMA (Certified Management Accountant) is a global certification in management accounting and corporate finance awarded by IMA (USA). In Saudi Arabia, CMA USA is highly valued by multinational companies, Big 4 firms, and large local groups because it focuses on financial planning, cost control, performance analysis, and strategic decision-making, which are key skills for modern finance leaders.
Who is eligible to enroll for the US CMA course in Saudi Arabia?
Anyone who has completed or is pursuing a bachelor’s degree in any discipline from an accredited college or university can enroll for the US CMA course. To obtain the CMA USA certificate from IMA, you must ultimately have a bachelor’s degree and two continuous years of relevant work experience in management accounting or financial management.
Can I start US CMA while I am still doing my graduation?
Yes, you can start CMA USA preparation while in college. Many students in Saudi Arabia begin after Grade 12 or during their bachelor’s degree, clear both exam parts in 6–8 months, and then complete the experience requirement while working.
How long does it take to complete the US CMA course?
Most candidates who follow our study plan and attend classes regularly complete both CMA parts within 6–9 months. We generally recommend 150–200 hours of focused study per part, depending on your background and work schedule.
What is the exam pattern for CMA USA?
Each CMA USA exam part is 4 hours long and computer-based, with 100 Multiple Choice Questions over 3 hours carrying 75% weightage and 2 essay scenarios over 1 hour carrying 25% weightage. You must attempt at least 50% of the MCQs correctly to unlock the essay section during the same exam sitting.
What is the passing score for CMA USA exams?
The CMA USA exam uses a scaled score from 0 to 500 for each part. You need a minimum scaled score of 360 to pass each exam part.
When are the CMA USA exams conducted?
CMA USA exams are conducted in three testing windows every year: January–February, May–June, and September–October. Within each window, you can schedule your exam on any available working day at an approved Prometric testing center.
Where can I take the CMA exam if I live in Saudi Arabia?

An accounting background is helpful but not mandatory. Many CMA candidates come from engineering, business administration, economics or other fields. We cover fundamentals where needed and gradually build up to advanced topics so non-commerce students can also succeed.
What are the main benefits of doing US CMA compared to other certifications?
US CMA offers international recognition in over 140 countries, has only two exam parts that can be completed in 6–9 months and focuses on practical management accounting and corporate finance skills. It emphasises strategic decision-making, performance management and cost control, leading to higher earning potential and faster career growth in finance roles.
How is US CMA different from an MBA?
CMA USA is a professional certification focused on management accounting and corporate finance, whereas an MBA is an academic degree covering broader business topics. Many professionals in Saudi Arabia pursue CMA alongside or after an MBA to strengthen their technical finance skills and stand out in recruitment.

After completing US CMA, you can target roles such as Financial Analyst, Management Accountant, Cost Accountant, Finance Manager, Financial Controller and, over time, senior positions like Finance Director and CFO in Saudi companies and multinational organisations.
