CMA Employer Testimonials

CMAs Are Business Partners

By having a CMA on my team, I know that they're going to be able to take information and data and translate it into decisions and performance indicators and help us all ultimately make better strategic decisions as a result.

CMAs Are Ready for the Future 

From an employer standpoint, the CMA is a mark of excellence. It not only shows that you're technically competent in finance and accounting skills, but also that you're forward-looking, and that you're going to be a strategist and a catalyst within an organization, which is what the future of finance is all about.

- Richard Brady, CMA, CDFM, CGFM
Colonel for the U.S. Marine Corps (Ret.) 

Laurie Bergman

CMAs Stand Out

As corporate finance is going through a lot of different types of transformation, people are feeling like they need something that's going to make them stand out from their competition as they're seeking new jobs. The CMA is an area where people can make sure that they're able to differentiate themselves from that standard CPA candidate.
