2025 was a year in which we focused on supporting the profession through uncertain times.

We developed new pathways to the CA qualification and continued to evolve our CA syllabus and training experience, to keep our members at the forefront of business, finance and accounting.  

Ethical leadership is central to all that we do at ICAS and in 2025 we continued to be bold in what we said and how we influenced, always delivering in the public interest and championing positive change.

We maintained our focus on sustainability, informing and inspiring our members and equipping the next generation for the challenges and opportunities ahead.

We placed a strong focus on enhancing customer experience and delivered effective and efficient regulatory functions across our licensing, monitoring, and enforcement teams.

We supported a sustainable, future-ready profession by focusing on widening access, further improving student and member retention across all backgrounds, and ensuring ICAS remains relevant to a changing membership and society.

2025 was also the year in which Bruce Cartwright CA announced that he was retiring from his position and handed over the reins to a new CEO, Gail Boag.
