Point of view
Please see WP:NPOV. Your comment about CPAs needs a citation from a reliable source, otherwise somebody will remove it. – Fayenatic  L ondon 21:01, 14 June 2013 (UTC)

The original comment about Chartered Accountant being equivalent to CPA has no citation.Would it be better for me to remove it than add my alternative view? If so, how do I do this? Whosforachat (talk) 21:44, 14 June 2013 (UTC)
 * When you find something that you think is worth challenging, remove it if it's libellous, but in a case like this the usual thing to do would be to tag it with .  If you can be bothered, enter the full version with current month & year as shown at Template:citation needed, but a bot would expand the "fact" version just the same anyway. There's no set time to wait after that before deleting it, but I'd suggest a couple of months for something like this that doesn't get a great deal of views.
 * In any case, you might struggle to find a citation for ACCA being a lower level qualification, as it has the same legal privileges, even though their students get 10 years rather than 6 to finish. – Fayenatic  L ondon 20:52, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

You are absolutely right. It is difficult to prove that any one qualification is worth more than any other. For example, I cannot think of any evidence that a Cambridge University theoretical physics degree is better than a University of East London history degree, even though some people might say it is. I will try to just tag the original claim. Thanks for the advice. Whosforachat (talk) 23:01, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
