Hello guys & gals i need some insight as i am in a very confused state at the moment, to cut the long story short i failed level 2 last year and given the fact it is offered only once a year i did not want to rely only on CFA designation so i started pursuing the CMA designation in Jan of 2013.I gave my level 2 again this and passed and now i am registered for level 3 and appearing for the CMA entrance exam on October this year.I know i will pass the exam is very easy but the two year SLP following that is pricey $10k i dont know if i should shed out that kinda money given that i am not in an accounting role.
I need some insight speciallay from those in Canada familiar with CMA what should i do in terms of work experience requirement.I am currently working for one of the major banks and involved in a financial advisory role specifically mutual funds, mortgages and secured lending which i know counts towards the CFA but will this count towards the CMA work experience?
Any insight is much appreciated thank you in advance for your comments
