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.


As a CMA, you will be recognized for your achievement and
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. Businesses around the world rely on CMAs for accounting, finance, information management, and most importantly, the strategic planning and business solutions provided by these qualified professionals.
