What do current CMAs say?
Glen LeBlanc, CMA
Chief Financial Officer, Bell Aliant
(Halifax, Nova Scotia)
“The CMA program is structured to give you leadership competency and to develop your technical skills, of
course ... but also to develop your business acumen – and that was of critical importance to me, to have all
the piece parts.
"The CMA designation has given me the credibility and foundation that allowed me to move through the finance
functions quite rapidly in my 12-year career thus far.“

Lori Clark, CMA
Director of Regulatory Affairs,
New Brunswick Power
(Fredericton, New Brunswick)
“Everywhere you go, the competitive landscape for attaining senior-level positions is getting tougher all the
time.
"For me, the CMA designation was the edge that set me apart from my colleagues and gave me the training and
confidence to be a leader wherever I go.
"There ’s no better satisfaction than staring a tough challenge in the face and knowing you can perform at
the top your game – and my CMA training allows me to do just that.”

Brian Chafe, CMA
Executive Vice-President and Chief Operating Officer, Provincial Aerospace
(St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador)
“As a senior executive, it ’s absolutely critical that I have a firm grasp of not only finance, but also
marketing, human resources, information technologies, and of most of all strategic planning – in other words,
the breadth of skills covered by a CMA designation.
"If you’re aiming for the top of the corporate ladder, I highly recommend beginning with a CMA
designation.”
