Metaverse-Based Token Symbolises Demand for Skilled Talent
SHANGHAI, Aug. 15, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — AICPA & CIMA, which together form the Association of International Certified Professional Accountants (the Association), recently launched their first non-fungible token (NFT) to promote the Digital Management Accounting (DMA) programme in China.
This is the first metaverse-based NFT collection produced by a global accounting professional organisation. It is also a unique step by the Association to embrace the expanding crypto technology throughout the metaverse.
DMA Metaverse Landing Token
The DMA® NFT rewards the first DMA exam candidates and encourages potential candidates to enrol in the programme. It also highlights demand in China for management accountants with digital skills.
In total, 168 copies were minted and available for collection on 29 July, mirroring the 168 mathematical beads on the monumental “Three Beads Above the Beam”, a classic Chinese abacus used to calculate the astronomical calendar.
The DMA Metaverse Landing Token and this classical Chinese tool are both products of the collision of mathematics and astronomy. In ancient China, the abacus was extensively used to explore the laws of nature and the universe’s workings, in addition to calculating numbers and keeping accounts. The DMA programme also highlights the values of exploration. Designed to challenge the perception of traditional accounting, it emphasises the significance of a digital mindset and the broad use of digital technology within the accounting profession, and aims to empower the transformation of accounting professionals in the era of digital intelligence in China.
Candidates who register for the first exam session of the DMA Programme on 27 August (DMA I) will have the opportunity to receive a DMA Metaverse Landing Token with a unique digital code on CGMA’s WeChat channel.
