Nigerian College of Accountancy (NCA) is an educational institution in Jos, Nigeria established in 1994 that is operated by Association of National Accountants of Nigeria (ANAN).

NCA is the training arm of ANAN, following International Federation of Accountants standards and pronouncements in training its students. It is a University member of the International Association for Accounting Education and Research (IAAER). The institution is headed by Director-General Sunday Ekune.[1] Accountancy graduates with a B.Sc. and Higher National Diploma from Nigerian Universities and Polytechnics qualify for admission to a three-year training program at the Nigerian College of Accountancy. On successful completion of the examinations they earn the designation of Certified National Accountant and qualify to join ANAN.[2]

The College opened in 1994 at Barkin Ladi in Plateau State, admitting ten students for the 1985/1995 academic year. Student numbers were low in the following years, and the college closed down temporarily in 1988. ANAN was chartered in 1993 and the College reopened with 54 students for the 1994/1995 year. Numbers grew steadily, with an intake of 3,300 student in the 2007/2008 year, which runs from September to May. As of 2011 the college was located at temporary premises in the Dogon-Dutse area of Jos. When it moves to permanent facilities, it is expected to grow to 4,000 students plus 1,000 practicing accountants undergoing ongoing professional development.[3]
