What Is The ICB?
The ICB is the Institute of Certified Bookkeepers. The ICB was established in 1931, in order to raise the level of accounting and bookkeeping qualifications in South Africa.
Aside from being a professional body, the ICB also offers courses. The Institute of Certified Bookkeepers South Africa offers courses in accounting, bookkeeping, office administration, business management, and entrepreneurship.
What Is The Function Of The ICB?
The function of the ICB is to provide you with knowledge regarding business management, financial accounting and office administration. The knowledge and skills that you gain can help you be advanced.
The Accreditation Of The ICB
The ICB is based in South Africa and is acknowledged by FASSET as one of their QAP (Quality Assurance Partner). Although the ICB is based in South Africa, it still has an affiliation with both the IAB (International Association of Bookkeepers) and IFA (Institute of Financial Accountants). Both the IFA and IAB operate from the United Kingdom.

An ICB qualification is locally and internationally recognised. The local recognition includes the following:
