US CMA registration is governed by IMA. A preparation provider can explain its academic support and help you prepare for an informed decision, but it cannot decide IMA eligibility, issue an examination appointment or guarantee certification.
Use IMA's current information for membership category, programme enrolment, examination fees, education and experience requirements, testing windows and appointment rules.
Discuss your accounting and finance foundation, class format, study time, practice needs and budget for preparation without confusing those with official IMA decisions.
Ask which amount is payable to IMA, which amount covers preparation support and which items can vary, such as exchange conversion, taxes, retakes or other third-party costs.
Confirm deadlines, account details and scheduling instructions with IMA before you submit information or make an official payment.
Official requirements, fees, appointment availability, deadlines and certification decisions can change. Verify current details on IMA's website before payment or registration.
