Corporate Finance Institute FMVA Certification?

Monkeys,

Has anyone taken the CFI FMVA certification and if so what are you thoughts on the quality of its content?

From what I have found it seems to be top shelf.

Cheers & SB's in advance.

MMAM, sorry there are no responses yet. Maybe one of these topics can point you in the right direction:

Fingers crossed that one of those helps you.

Idk if it's too late for you but I can give you some insights on the courses. I have done both the FMVA and the CBCA programs so far. What I liked about the FMVA was, that it helped me tremendously in improving my Excel skills in general. You're learning all the basic functions, as well as some advanced stuff. The modeling exercises themselves are well structured, so you get a step-by-step guide to build all models from scratch. I would advice to try it on your own a few times more after you have gone through the courses, so that it really sticks. Or try their practice exercises. All in all I have learned a lot from it and am happy to have taken the courses.

Feel free to ask further questions!
