The Accounting Department at Yarmouk University arranged an open scientific seminar aiming at widening the students’ knowledge about professional accounting certificates (CPA and CMA). The seminar was presented by the executive partner, Hatim Al-Qawasmi. Prof Dr Mona Al- Mwalla, Dean of the College of Economics and Administrative Sciences, also attended the seminar. Mr Al-Qawasmi discussed various issues particularly those related to the importance of professional accounting certificates and the adequate preparation required for passing the CPA and CMA examinations. Mr Al-Qawasmi also introduced to the students attending the seminar real stories of success and the potentialities in order to motivate them to obtain the above mentioned certificates. The head of the Accounting Department, Dr Khaldoon Al-Daoud, emphasized the importance and necessity in holding seminars and meetings at the College Economics and Administrative Sciences that target the development of students’ capabilities and skills particularly those leading to obtain the CPA and CMA certificates. These seminars would definitely increase students’ opportunities in working in the large accounting firms.
In 1981 Yarmouk University established a unique college under the title of “Faculty of Economics and Administrative Sciences”, with the objective of meeting stakeholders needs and contributing to the national business, organizational and management arena.
