    He added that students from accredited institutions derive many benefits from the institute such as: exemption from some stages of the professional examinations while registering, getting scholarships as first class students and being the best-graduating students with prize-money of N150,000, sponsorship for Ph.D programme and benefiting from the setting up of a research centre.

    Prof. Akintoye advised that an Accounting Technical Scheme Tutorial Centre should be established in the University to enhance the performance and acceptability of FUNAAB accounting graduates in the labour market.

    Speaking earlier, the Vice-Chancellor of UNAAB, Prof. Olusola Oyewole, represented by the Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Development), Prof. Ololade Enikuomehin, appreciated the contributions of ICAN to the University.
