CAT means Certificate in Accounting Technician. It is offered by ICMAI (ICWAI). It is good for all commerce graduates. If you are not good in computer basics, then I will suggest you to pursue ADCA i.e. advance Diploma in computer application in finance and account from recognized training institutes and CAT from ICMAI.
