Beyond the fact that IMA’s Annual Salary Survey (Strategic Finance magazine, June 2008) reveals that certified professionals earn approximately 25 percent more than non-certified professionals and those with both a CMA and CPA earn 32% more. Holding the CMA sets you apart from other practitioners and demonstrates your dedication to the profession, a commitment to excellence, and a pledge to adhere to the highest ethical standards.
More than 90 percent of finance function professionals today work inside organizations, where expertise in decision support, planning, and control over value-creating operations is a crucial element of operational success. The CMA is the advanced, globally recognized credential that best supports these professionals who drive business performance from inside their organizations. Businesses around the world look to CMAs to contribute the management accounting expertise needed to add strategic value to the organization. Also, potentially as many as 80 percent of those who enter public accounting eventually leave to work in industry, and the CMA program best prepares these professionals for the transition to a more advanced, strategic role within an organization.
