Who is NACVA and What is a CVA?

The National Association of Certified Valuators and Analysts® (NACVA®) trains and certifies holders of the Certified Valuation Analyst® (CVA®) designation to perform  business valuations as a service to the business,  professional, and legal communities. 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 credentialed 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 a credentialed practitioner’s 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 credential holders.

This CVA designation, established by the National  Association of Certified Valuators and Analysts® (NACVA®), is the only valuation credential accredited by the National Commission for Certifying Agencies® (NCCA®), the accreditation body of the Institute for Credentialing Excellence™ (ICE™), and the ANSI National Accreditation Board® (ANAB®).
