CPAs provide a wide range of services and are employed in public accounting and other professional services firms, business and
industry, government and education. CPAs in public practice are engaged by their clients for a variety of services including accounting,
auditing, tax, personal financial planning, technology consulting and business valuation. CPAs employed in business, industry and
government are likewise responsible for activities from accounting and financial reporting, implementing and managing internal controls and
information systems, to compliance with tax and other laws and regulations and other areas of business and financial management.
Accredited in Business Valuation (ABV), American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
The Accredited in Business Valuation (ABV) program provides specialized access to information, education, tools and support that
enhance credential holders' ability to make a genuine difference for their clients and employers. ABV credential holders may brand or position
themselves as premier business valuation service providers who differentiate themselves by going beyond the core service of reaching a
conclusion of value and creating value for clients through the strategic application of this analysis.
Certified in Financial Forensics (CFF), American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) established the Certified in Financial Forensics (CFF) in 2008 for
CPAs who specialize in forensic accounting. The CFF credential is granted exclusively to CPAs who demonstrate considerable expertise in
forensic accounting through their knowledge, skills, and experience. The CFF encompasses fundamental and specialized forensic accounting
skills that CPA practitioners apply in a variety of service areas, including: bankruptcy, insolvency and reorganization; computer forensic
analysis; economic damages calculations; family law; fraud prevention, detection and response; financial statement misrepresentation; and
valuations.
Certified Valuation Analyst (CVA), National Association of Certified Valuation Analysts
The National Association of Certified Valuation Analysts (NACVA) trains and certifies Certified Valuation Analysts (CVA) to perform
business valuations as a service to both the consulting community and the users of their services. Through training and rigorous testing,
CVAs demonstrate they are qualified to provide capable and professionally executed valuation services. CVAs must also possess an active
CPA license.
Master Analyst in Financial Forensics (MAFF), National Association of Certified Valuation Analyst
The Master Analyst in Financial Forensics(MAFF) credential is designed to provide assurance to the legal community—the primary
users of litigation consulting services—that the designee possesses a level of experience and knowledge deemed acceptable by the Institute
to provide competent and professional forensic financial support services. Earning the credential requires consideration of all of the person’s
qualifications and commitment to the discipline; this includes prior education and experience, prerequisite and required training as provided
(or recommended) by the Financial Forensic Institute, testing—both proctored and through case study (or samples of work product), and
post-requisite requirements for recertification.
Certified Fraud Examiner (CFE), Association of Certified Fraud Examiners
The Certified Fraud Examiner (CFE) credential denotes proven expertise in fraud prevention, detection and deterrence. CFEs are
trained to identify the warning signs and red flags that indicate evidence of fraud and fraud risk. CFEs around the world help protect the
global economy by uncovering fraud and implementing processes to prevent fraud from occurring in the first place.
Accredited Senior Appraiser (ASA), American Society of Appraisers
The American Society of Appraisers is an international organization of appraisal professionals. ASA members represent all disci-
plines, including business valuation. Business appraisers value businesses, business ownership interests, and securities for businesses of
all sizes. They also value specific intangible business assets such as patents, trademarks, employment agreements, copyrights and goodwill.
Chartered Merger & Acquisition Professional (CMAP), Middle Market Investment Banking Association

ket investment banking professionals as well as the promotion of the profession and its interests to the public, academia and the appropriate
