I passed the CPA exam about two years ago and am interested in obtaining the CFE designation. I know the CFE is easier to pass in comparison to the CPA. However, the CFE is pretty expensive, costing $845 for study materials which contain 1500 questions. Over 50 cents a question.
Anyway, I’m trying to get the firm that I work for to pay for the study material and testing fees, about $1,200 total. The firm has a seperate departments for work related to fraud, tax, and audit, for which I am in the audit dept. I am having some trouble answering this key question.
How does this certification benefit the firm? (Keep in mind I’m an auditor.)
Some of the answers I came up with are:
• 35 CPE credits for completing the CFE Exam Prep Course
• Improves risk assessment abilities
• Improves fraud detection abilities
• Possibly increases my billing rate
• Ability to provide better client service
• Looks better on proposals
Can anybody help me come up with some more tangible benefits of obtaining the CFE designation?
