Certified Management Accountants (CMA) are strategic financial management professionals who integrate accounting expertise with advanced management skills to achieve business success. The uniqueness of the designation lays with the dual benefit of having a globally recognized accounting designation partnered with the broad management skills normally only associated with an MBA degree.
The CMA society, founded in Canada in the 1920s, is a self-regulating body maintaining the highest standards, practices and professional conduct in management accounting to protect the public interest. It represents 40,000 fully accredited professionals and 10,000 students and candidates in Canada and around the world.
Those wishing to pursue the prestigious CMA designation are offered a full suite of CMA professional programs in Canada, Bermuda, and the Caribbean in tandem with qualification components that may be pursued through distance learning.
The administrative office of CMA Nova Scotia, Bermuda and the Caribbean is a regional governance entity serving members, employers, and students in these specific regions within the CMA partnership.
