The Rules of the Institute specifies the level of training, examinations, period of service, experience and fitness for membership required relating to the admission or advancement of a person to membership of the Institute as a Fellow of the Institute of Chartered Management Accountants (FCMA) and Associate Chartered Management Accountant of the Institute (ACMA).

ICMA (Australia)’s CMA preparatory program must be done by all aspiring to be FCMAs or ACMAs of ICMA (PNG).
