Really depends on what your career goals are. If you're looking to get involved in valuation, then yes - the CVA would be worth the time and effort. If it's just to add a few more letters after your name, then probably not.

I would have to agree with MD1. I don't think it's really helpful in any way. Do you have an alternative plan, OP?

Has anyone tried getting their CVA? If so, what was your experience like (besides awful I am sure)? Looking to sit for it once I return to the states.

Has anyone taken classes in valuations and received some kind of credential with just an EA? After a bit of a detour I’m getting my EA this year. I‘ve looked in to a few options, like the CVA, but it looks like I’d have to go to business school or become a CPA. I’m not against either but I don’t feel ready to apply to schools just yet. Wondering if anyone has taken a similarly unconventional route in their careers.
