- CMA Certification
For nearly 50 years, the CMA® (Certified Management Accountant) certification has
been the global benchmark for management accountants and financial professionals.
Why? Because CMAs can explain the "why" behind numbers, not just the "what." And that
can give you greater credibility, higher earning potential, and ultimately a seat
at the leadership table.
