FMVA worth it?

Hi, I realise that the CFI's FMVA is targeted at career progression (I.e. postgrad) but what will it look like if an undergrad had it on their CV while aiming for spring weeks and internships? I'll be coming from a non target so could this help or would it make me seem a bit desperate?

Cheers

The FMVA is definitely coming up, and is more well structured than WSP. It’s much more broad than WSP, but still gives a comparable level of depth. Overall, I would say the FMVA is a more modern and better-structured version of WSP. Interface and materials are far more ‘2020’ imo.

I also like that’s it’s a certificate program that requires you to take some sort of exam after each course etc.
