Faculty

The Nahata Professional Academy Mentor Team —
Taught by People Who Have Lived the Careers

At Nahata Professional Academy, faculty credentials begin with industry experience — not teaching years. The people who guide your qualification have worked in the profession you are entering. That context is not a bonus. It is the baseline.

Our Standard

The Nahata Professional Academy Faculty Standard

There is a version of finance education where a teacher presents a syllabus, a student memorises it, and both declare success at the exam results. Nahata Professional Academy is not that version.

Our mentors have practiced the subjects they teach. The person who teaches you Financial Reporting has reviewed financial statements under IFRS at a firm that issues them. The person who teaches you Management Accounting has sat in the management accounting meetings where the decisions those frameworks describe are actually made. The person who teaches you Audit has been on audit engagements — not just studied audit theory.

This is the Nahata Professional Academy faculty standard. It is not universal in professional finance education. At Nahata Professional Academy, it is non-negotiable.

ACCA
ACCA Faculty

Our ACCA mentor team covers all 13 papers across Applied Knowledge, Applied Skills, and Strategic Professional. CA Gaurav Sabharwal personally leads the programme and teaches the core papers. The mentor team supporting him brings industry backgrounds in audit, financial reporting, taxation, and management accounting — the exact functions the ACCA qualification prepares students for.

CMA USA
CMA USA Faculty

CMA USA at Nahata Professional Academy is taught personally by CA Gaurav Sabharwal — Chief Career Mentor — for both Part 1 and Part 2. His Big 4 and investment banking background is directly applicable to the management accounting and strategic finance content that defines CMA USA's syllabus.

Why CMA USA
CMA USA is the most underutilised qualification in the Indian finance market. It speaks directly to the FP&A function — the fastest-growing area of corporate finance. CA Gaurav's goal is not just to pass students. It is to build them a plan for the career the qualification opens.

Why We Call Them Mentors, Not Teachers

The word 'faculty' implies a role that ends at the classroom door. A mentor's role does not end there.

At Nahata Professional Academy, the people who teach your papers are also the people who answer your doubt on the LMS at 9pm, who give you individual feedback on your mock exam, who tell you honestly whether you are ready for the next exam window or need another month, and who are invested in whether you get the job offer — not just whether you pass the paper.

That relationship is the product. The qualification is the evidence of it.
