Hi! I am interested in Forensic Accounting and would like to ask what pathways did you guys take? I am a recent graduate and work experience as an accounting clerk.
I am interested in taking CFE. Do I also need to take CPA? Or the CFE is sufficient?

Thanks in advance!

I’d to get a job in a small architecture firm or work for a developer to help build up my network. For the past 6 years I’ve taught high school architecture and engineering and done real estate on the side. I have an industrial design degree and tremendous construction and real estate sales knowledge. I also started architecture school but stupidly switched to industrial design. I don’t want to go back to school for architecture. Ultimately, I want to own my own company developing real estate.
