Private CSCA Tutoring

As you probably know, the CSCA is a certification designed for IMA members who have already passed the CMA exam (both parts). It indicates an interest in and skill set around understanding business strategy and competitive positioning. Private CSCA (Certified in Strategy and Competitive Analysis) tutoring can make the process of preparing for the CSCA more efficient relative to self-study or self-paced online CSCA courses. 

We have local CSCA tutors in several cities, but private online CSCA tutoring is the preferred way we help most students pass this exam. Our CSCA tutors work with students on all three content categories: strategic analysis, creating competitive advantage, and strategy implementation and performance evaluation.

Our Approach to Online CSCA Tutoring

Most students prepare for the CSCA using self-study materials from the Institute of Management Accountants. 

A CSCA tutor functions as a mentor, coach, and teacher. a CSCA coach will help you choose materials, develop a study plan, and of course, fully understand difficult concepts and review practice problems.  Most importantly, a CSCA tutor helps you prioritize your study efforts, teaching you how to study for the CSCA in the most effective and efficient way possible.

The process starts with a free phone call. The materials you are using, timeline for taking the test, and CSCA topics you've found difficult are discussed..  Typically, your tutor will leverage the CSCA prep materials you are already using to help you design a study plan, while also clarifying and elaborating on key concepts and giving you critical feedback on missed problems.
