Some of the financial certifications allow you to take some of the exams
while a student in your senior year. Some of you may have time to do this during the summer and fall as other opportunities have not materialized. This might be a good time to prepare to take one of the certification exams later in 2020 or in 2021. Having successfully passed a part of one of these exams is a definite resume booster for competitive entry-level positions.
Also, reduced fees and/or scholarships are available for students.
More information can be found about the CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst) and CMA (Certified Management Accountant) exams in the links below.
The CFA is relevant to pursue an investment management career. The CMA is relevant to pursue a corporate financial management career.
