HVAC Certification Costs. The cost for HVAC certification varies depending on the training program you take. It also depends on which exam you take and your stateâs licensing fees. You will want to contact a training school in your area or visit a website to determine the costs.
If you would like to go into consulting or management for a financial services firm, an MBA might serve you best. Other career paths for which an MBA is useful include securities analysts, investment bankers and venture capitalists. However, if you want to go into auditing or review financial statements, you're going to need a CPA.
Obviously getting a masters and a CPA will make you a better hire, but you can still land good positions without it. I graduated with a bachelors, got an internship, got 6 months of corporate finance experience, and just recently got a good position with a company as a trainee staff accountant.
