Difference btw CGA and CPA

Hi all,

I am currently considering pursue an accounting designation and getting ready to enroll into CGA. However, my friends all say that CGA is not as good as CPA, it this true?

From my perspective, CGA seems much easier but it still has its value.

I am hoping to do public practice in the future, need some suggestions right now.

Also, I am looking for some study groups :D
