Certified Management Accountant
 
The Certified Management Accountant (CMA) designation reflects a
demonstrated ability to work across the breadth and depth of the
entire accounting process within organizations as well as a proficiency
in decision-making, planning, and control functions. This certification
provides distinction in today's economic climate and affords the
opportunity to certify your expertise in the business areas that are
critical to the decision-making process. Designated CMAs have
agreed to maintain professional competence through annual
continuing professional education (CPE) and commitment to a
code of ethics.

distinguished from your peers. This will increase your credibility and productivity as well as provide opportunities to assess and demonstrate capabilities and expand your knowledge base.
