Hi, Nerissa! No, you don't. Inside our Academy program, I'll advise you when to pay for your IMA membership, CMA entrance fee and exam registration. Hint: Not all of them should be paid at the same time. Plus, as our student, you'll get an exclusive 15% discount on your IMA membership and CMA entrance fee thanks to our partnership with the IMA.

Hi Coach, I’m planning to take the challenge and go for a CMA qualification, I’m wondering if learning the part 1 for few months (4 - 6 months) then take the 1st exam, then go to part 2, learn for few months (4-6) and then take the 2nd exam. Doing this you have less information to process and thus perform better in the exam. Is this a good strategy, or should I go 10-12 months on both parts and then try to take the exams?

Hi Sonja! You should remember that to obtain the CMA certification, you must meet specific educational requirements. CMA educational requirements can be fulfilled in two ways: 1. Earn a bachelor’s degree from an accredited college or university 2. Have a professional certification Also, CMA does not require you to have a bachelor’s degree in finance or accounting. But your degree must come from a regionally accredited or Distancing Education Accrediting Commission (DEAC) accredited university or college. If you don't have a bachelor’s degree, you can still qualify for the CMA certification requirements by holding a professional certification. You can learn more about all requirements here: cmaexamacademy.com/cma-certification-requirements/

I would highly recommend taking accounting and finance classes in college to have a strong foundation for the CMA exam. These classes will provide you with a solid understanding of the financial and accounting concepts that are covered on the exam. Additionally, taking classes will help you develop the necessary skills and knowledge to analyze and interpret financial information, which will be essential when taking the CMA exam. It is also important to note that the CMA exam is widely considered to be challenging, so having a strong educational background in accounting and finance will give you an advantage when preparing for the exam. In addition to taking classes in college, you can also consider joining a student accounting or finance association, or participating in an internship or other hands-on experience in the field.

Hi. After passing both parts of the CMA exam, you will need two continuous years of professional experience in management accounting and/or financial management. This experience can be gained before or within 7 years of passing the exam. Part-time positions can also count towards this requirement as long as they amount to a full-time equivalent.

Hi! If you are still in college, choose Student membership. Otherwise, go for the Professional membership. One of the requirements is to have a Bachelor's degree yes.

Hi Nathan! I ve got my Bachelors degree in commerce and MBA Finance (2007). I have around 3 years experience in banking until 2010. Now after so many years of gap, would like to bring life to my career by pursuing CMA. 1. Which IMA membership should I choose? 2. I’m a housewife, I can spend more hours on CMA, but is this doable in my case? 3. I’m in the UAE, will i get good opportunities here once I complete my 2 parts CMA exam, for completing the professional requirements? 4. I’m ready to take the highest combo package of your course, it’s been really long since I have been in touch with finance & accounting. Naturally i have got my own doubts whether will this course suit me and will i be able to pass? And will i get good job?

I don't have an accounting degree. I study international studies as my undergrad degree. The only two accounting classes that I took were the intro to financial accounting and intro to managerial accounting. And I can't imagine getting a management accounting job without an accounting degree. How can I study for it without an accounting degree to serve as my foundation?

@Cmacoach

3 жыл бұрын

Hi Hope! It's totally possible to get a management accounting job without an accounting degree. Many professionals make a career transition to accounting via the CMA designation. It's tougher for them to pass the exam compared to someone with an accounting degree of course, but not impossible. For folks who haven't had accounting exposure, my suggestion is to read an Accounting 101 textbook or guide to learn the basics. If you re-read your financial accounting and intro to managerial accounting textbooks, you'd be ready to tackle the CMA. Coaching support is going to be key for you since you'll need extra help to conquer the exam :)
