 All credit goes to only and only IPFC & Bala sir who help me to clear CMA(US) P1
As an student who has trudged both paths - the path shown by Bala sir and the path of doing things on our own, I advise students to blindly follow follow Sush Bala Sir. Here is a teacher who can make complex concepts simple and teach short cuts consequently allowing students to answer questions like an automaton thus saving on precious time.
I went back to academics after a gap of 17 years. Many concepts that were unclear before I was mentored by Bala Sir in IPFC. These are crystal clear now.
Looking forward to pass CMA Part2 and becoming a CMA(US) as well.

To this effect, the undaunted and relentless pursuit made by Bala Sir all these years has given IPFC a niche in providing quality coaching to aspiring students in the accounting profession.

I will always be thankful to Bala Sir and the kind of dedication that you show towards every student is outstanding. I don't think it would have been possible if I had join in any other institute other than IPFC.
All homework, Mock Assessment and feedback methodology and moreover the best quality of teachinghelps students to achieve their goals. I felt some times, teaching is way beyond the level than the exam content as you are qualified with different professional courses.
Thank you very much for your support and guidance. You will be always my guru and will approach for your advice.

 Thank you Bala Sir for all your support and cooperation. At one point of time I had no confidence of facing the exam, but because of you I could do it.
The teaching method is by far the best. The way you have the track of your students is amazing. I enjoyed every bit of it. Appreciation and of course slight battering when not listening to you.
To succeed in CMA US/CPA US for working professionals, IPFC Academy is the best place.

Passed P1 in Jan/Feb 2020

 I have passed CMA Part-1 with a score of 390. It was a fantastic journey of 3 months, I still wonder 3 months were just enough with IPFC tohave an apex professional body examination to crack.
Even though I had plan to do CMA from 2017, but I refrained from studying by seeing volume. Now I feel it not only about volume it’s about a mentor like you which made us capable to handle any situation in exam hall and life.
A recorded class would never give the motivation and keep the "Josh" up as you give.Now I'm confident that I could complete CMA by coming window and move up in life.
Thank you so much Team IPFC and Bala Sir.

Passed P1 in Jan/Feb 2020

 Though I started my Journey with IPFC somewhere in 2015, but during those days I was not regular, attentive and persistent. I continued the class for 5 to 6 months but never looked to take any exams.
After every CMA window, I use to get a motivating and encouraging email from Bala Sir, asking to join back and fulfil your dream of becoming CMA. This almost happened for 4 to 5 times and finally in 2018, I decided to give it a final try.
From that day onwards I started attending the class regularly and also started to take all the IPFC mocks. Initially my score where very low in Mocks. I use to go through the Mock Feedback and notes which helped to improve my understanding on the topics.
Many of the people may argue what is special in IPFC compared to other institute. The only thing which I can say is Bala Sir, his direction and his knowledge. I passed CMA part 2 hardly with 200 plus pages IPFC notes and Mocks.

CMA US certification is a good for those who want to advance/make career in Accounting & Finance. Topics covered in CMA are relevant for working professionals to upgrade their skills.

 The way of teaching especially without the help of books or questions is unique to IPFC Academy. Into the mid-career and after years of leaving studies, it is very difficult for me to read the book and prepare for the exam.
I credit the success wholly to Sushant sir because only by his energetic and persuasive push made me continue, otherwise I might have dropped out. After my first attempt, I thought it is not my bread. The support team also provided good and prompt support.
Now the Part II is remaining which i will be attempting in coming window.

 I started my journey of CMA in 2014 with one of the institute in Riyadh. Within sometime, I wasn't able to connect and couldn't go for any exams.
Back in 2019, I feel CMA should be done by any means and decided to Join IPFC.
I appreciate the teaching effort and guidance provided by the Bala Sir. What keeps me going as compared to my previous institute is continuous follow up and chasing of Bala sir when it comes to attending classes or submission of homeworks and Mock classes and special attention given for each students.
By God’s grace and under the guidance of Bala Sir I was able to pass the CMA P1 during the Feb 2020 exams with 380 marks.

I noticed that IPFC Academy classes has improved a lot when compare to the earlier years , the notes, white boards and excel sheets are more than enough to clear the concept in all areas of CMA topics more over we are getting many mock exams after each topics which will enable us to practice the questions like real exam.
Sush Bala Sir classes and mentoring helped a lot to get the confidence back. Now I am confident that I can complete CMA probably in the coming window.

 It feels so good after passing both the papers of CMA (US) exams in the first attempt. My sincere thanks to the entire IPFC family for all the guidance and coaching.
IPFC online classes that happen over the weekend is a big advantage for all working professionals. It is really flexible, 2 hours on Saturday’s/ Sunday’s and on Thursday’s/Friday's for each part.
Teaching at IPFC happens in a traditional way i.e. teacher writes on a whiteboard and those whiteboards are sufficient for revision of the concepts.
Mr Sush Bala, is a great mentor and motivator He has a unique teaching style with focus on every student in the class, their performance, areas of improvement, etc.
The mock tests and home works that are conducted gives a flair of real CMA exam questions.

 It’s my pleasure to share my learning experience with IPFC team, without whose continuous support, I could not have cleared my CMA(US) exam.
I just want to highlight the methodology of imparting training which is totally different. You learn interactively through active participation.The internal evaluation process of IPFC is superb, which grooms yourigorously on a continuous basis. Mr Sush Balaalways highlights your weak areas and helps you to improve.
If you want to clear the exams and master the subject which will provide you an edge in your professional career, then I request you to listen him and follow him. You need to follow whatever he write on white board and complete all the homework and mocks. You will not require to read or refer toany books and other fascinating online mocks.
Thanks for the support and contribution for my success. You will always remain in my prayers.

 I would like to extend my sincere gratitude to Sush Sir and his team at IPFC for their contribution in my passing Part 1 CMA exam with a score 390. More than a teacher, he is a mentor, motivator, and best guide to achieve our dream
Keep these in mind :
Attend all classes, as conceptual clarity is most important
Revise white boardand use it as your textbook
Attend all Mock Tests - repeat at least 2 -3 times.
Practice Software section-wise only until you reach 90% score in each section.
Practice, Practice and Practice.
I did not study anything extra for essay, but just verified the model essay answers. If we have 100% conceptual knowledge, the essay will be easier.

 Mr. Sushant Bala Sir, as I have understood him is a true gentleman who above all is a brilliant strategist, a genuine achiever himself who pushes students to achieve their goals too, thus a great leader who knows his job to the core and can go to any extent to achieve it.
They say, he who has traversed a path multiple times, is suited to be the best possible mentor and that's exactly what Bala Sir is. For one he took me, a person with engineering & management background and made me pass CMA (US), one of the toughest exams in strategic finance & accounting in just 18 months in the first attempt.
Bala Sir's background in engineering & management, and his way of teaching is well suited for engineers and his exceptional clarity of thought and massive industry experience make him literally paint finance & accounting concepts on a digital canvas/whiteboard which students need to keep in mind during exams.
While teaching is probably 50% of his efforts the remaining 50% goes into monitoring student progress and pushing them to the edge for success.

 I had left my studies 17 years back and never imagined that I could do a professional course. It was not easy to cover the portions with our busy work schedule. But IPFC classes and mock tests are enough for any student to pass. IPFC students are not required to read study materials, because the classes are arranged in such a way that you will understand the topics from the class itself.
I am deeply thankful toMr Sush Bala sir and the complete IPFC team for this wonderful support. The amount of commitment is remarkable.
From my experience, I was able to conclude, that students need to follow instructions, be regular in class, take & retake all mock tests and homework.
These are enough for passing CMA(US)

 Needless to say that, being a working professional with limited time to read books, I had to depend ONLY on the Notes provided along with the tests. The notesgave us 100% view of the large text books, which completely eliminated the need of go thru any books.
Completing the Home Works has played the trick and it gave me much needed confidence to attempt the Test Papers.
The notes, home works and test papers would not have helped, if I was not pressurized to pursue, through constant mails. It was really challenging to respond to mails, by attempting the tests. Once all the tests were taken, by enough retakes, I was almost through the first part of the exam.
The tips & technique of attending questions during exam, is also very important for everyone to finish the questions within the time limit.

 When as a student, you have multiple responsibilities and priorities in your personal and professional life, it becomes difficult to devote dedicated time to study religiously for a tough exam like CMA(US). That's where IPFC was a great help for me personally. Their model allowed me to effectively use the time to clear my exam.
The aspects which I really admire about IPFC and Mr. Sush Bala is their commitment and ownership towards students. The course coverage to the minutest of details and its depth is absolutely fantastic. Be it a festival, adverse weather conditions or for that matter any other social/political reasons, the IPFC class goes without any impact, whatsoever.
The live interactive online classes are ideal for the aspirants who wants to attend classes from the comfort of your place without disturbing your work and family schedule. This allows them to make the “not so productive” time to upgrade and enhance your professional skills in accounting, reporting, risk management, and internal controls.

 Am grateful to IPFC Academy which helped me to stand tall in this competitive word and made me proud achiever. Take my word, I am in my early 40’s, holding a responsible position in one of the MNC’s with a lot more professional and family responsibility. Still, I was able to fulfill my dream. I can safely state that all of you are in the safe hands of an excellent mentor, Bala sir of IPFC. Just follow him as a disciple and you will reach your destination easily.

 He had so many intermittent incidents, accidents, disturbances in his life that after passing one part (P1), he was not able to join back. With IPFC I got the real platform for the CMA. The learning process got changed from the conventional book teaching to a concept oriented classes. It was my first experience for the online class., which builds the the conceptual understanding not on the course itself, but on the professional side. For me IPFC is the best choice for doing any professional course.

 It was really a nice experience to clear a tough professional exam without even bothering to read any textbook.

 This is to inform you that I have cleared my CMA Part 2 exam in the first attempt (Oct 2018) after I joined IPFC in Jan 2018 and cleared part 1 in June 2018 in very first attempt . My journey with IPFC during this period of 9 months has been great as I cleared both the CMA parts in first attempt itself . It has been lot’s of hard work during this period as apart from office we used to have classes ,homework and mocks . This also included special classes organized during the end of course which used to put extra pressure on us . But this extra pressure helped me to excel as this helped me to prepare for CMA course within three months with the support of IPFC

Deepak Rustagi

 At the outset I’d like to express my sincere gratitude to you and IPFC team for achieving my dream, CMA. There is a saying that “Success wouldn’t come without hard work”, it is proven in my CMA journey. It needs a lot of efforts to become a CMA, however as an IFPC student, those loads had been significantly taken care by you. Just to listen what you say during the class hours, most importantly MOCK, HW and exam tips are significantly adding value to our efforts. I would like to share my happiness with you and our IPFC family, by transferring a small amount to IPFC account, for sweet distribution.

Raajeshwar

 If anyone is interested in their ROI and tasting success for their CMA look no further other than IPFC. Anyhow, gratitude cannot be expressed in words for the whole team effort put out by IPFC and over an above the leader Sushantha Bala for truly coaching us to be an effective management accountant.

You should give a lot of thought before making the decision to join.

He is one of those person with iron will and a man with mission to make us CMA, Not to forget the support staff Kalyani and Sohini, they are a mountain of patience, and diligence, they support every time you need video and have never told no.

I had left my studies 16 years back and never had imagined that i could do a professional course. It wasn't easy though among the busy work schedules and personal commitments. But IPFC classes are absolute enough to boost the morale of a most weakest person and emerge to victory. I was not able to attend the classes regularly due to work and personal commitments but Ipfc class notes are absolutely a bible which helped me to gear up and obtain confidence in attending PART 1. I am glad to say that i could clear PART 1 with 380 score in my first attempt, an attempt after 16 years of gap in study, which i dedicate for your Love and Passion towards your students.

I am very happy to inform you that I passed both parts of CMA Exams in June and October window. Also, I received CMA Badge and credential number on 21st December 2018 and now officially became a CMA. I almost completed the first part within 3 months but still lacked the confidence to attend the exam. Anyway, I revised my studies for second terms by attending the classes and mocks and then finally wrote the exam in June 2018. I passed in the first attempt itself. Then immediately I decided to book and complete the course by the next window and I could achieve it.

The best part which I like with IPFC is the follow-up by your team. I am sure that I completed the course successfully due to the follow up only, otherwise I would have been dropped out
