So my job description has expanded to include supervision of some accounting functions. I am, therefore, keen to get some good-quality education. Doing the CPA exam, for a variety of reasons, is not a viable option.
In addition to accounting CPE from the same people that provide tax courses, I had considered doing the ABA credential from ACAT. I have written to them a couple of times with basic questions and have yet to be afforded the courtesy of a response. So, before I moan at them over the 'phone, I thought I would ask here for views on whether this credential will be worth anything. Yes, I know the EA credential is hard enough to market v the CPA, but I am more interested in knowing if the education is likely to be of value. Or would I be better simply seeking out good-quality CPE and forgoing another three letters after my name?
