National Association
of Certified Valuation
Analysts, Certified
Valuation Analyst
The National Association
of Certified Valuation
Analysts (NACVA) trains and
certifies Certified
Valuation Analysts (CVA) to
perform business valuations
as a service to both the
consulting community and the
users of their services.
Through training and
rigorous testing, CVAs
demonstrate they are
qualified to provide capable
and professionally executed
valuation services. NACVA
recommends specific training
as a prerequisite to
certification to assure that
practitioners have the
knowledge and understanding
necessary to perform
competent services, and to
assure a level of
consistency and continuity
in their work product. Users
of valuation services
benefit by having greater
confidence that the service
they receive is professional
in quality, adheres to
industry standards of
practice, and meets a level
of expertise the Association
deems credible and worthy of
one of its certified
members. A primary
requirement for becoming a
CVA is to hold a valid
license as a Certified
Public Accountant. |
