Question: What associations are available to me as a financial modeling specialist?
Answer: There aren’t too many associations for financial modeling professionals. You definitely could join the Association for Financial Modeling and Educational Technology (AFMET). You would also be well served to take on relevant certifications such as the Certified Financial Modeling Specialist (CFMS), Chartered Financial Analyst, and join the CFA Institute which is a global association of investment professionals.
