Is it worth to pursue a CIA + SAP from distance learning in India and why?

It does not really matter whether you have passed graduation through distance as long as you have good skills in SAP. That is what your employers' or clients' will be interested in. Therefore, please do not worry much about your distance education. If you have 9 good years of ERP experience, you should be in a position to utilize it in a better way. There are a number of opportunities in FICO. You could even enhance your knowledge by learning FSCM and BPC. Certified Internal Auditor Training The courses offered in Certified Internal Auditor (CIA) prep programs are usually broken into four parts and are based on a learning sequence developed by the IIA. Students learn how to provide risk and control analysis by utilizing information technology. Often, the curricula found in accounting degree programs can complement the coursework provided in internal auditing certificate programs. Training topics can include: Fraud prevention methods Accounting practices Economic regulations Use of information technology Business operations analysis Organizational behaviour issues

If you really want to make a career in internal audit, then I would suggest you to go for CISA/CRM along with your CIA to strengthen your profile on IS risk management. Through this, your area of expertise would attract scopes in IT field also. With many MNC and IT companies in India, job prospects for this course is enormous. Any MNC, which would want to employ a CIA in their SOX team or Risk management team would always welcome you. But, I would still suggest you to do this, as an additional course to your professional degree like, CA/CWA/CS. You will not be getting much scope if you only have CIA certificate. And regarding SAP, SAP certification does not guarantee good placement. It is only an additional values that is added in your resume. Having an SAP certification in a topic can be a door opener or conversation started, but it does not guarantee anything.
