CERTIFIED EXIT PLANNING ADVISOR

"I have worked to integrate different CEPA principles into my own company that have helped to move the needle internally. I have also worked to expand my network of professionals to team up with and refer with in the future. The CEPA is a differentiator for me in my area of practice, which has already opened up some new opportunities."

"An instrumental tool I use when working with business owners."
The CEPA program continues to be an instrumental tool I use when working with business owners. It has been an honor to educate as a faculty member and meet the new CEPA graduates. Our advisors continue to integrate the foundation of the Exit Planning Institute into our conversations with clients.

"Intuitive, concise, and helpful."
As a former institutional investor and equity research analyst, I found the Value Acceleration Methodology intuitive, concise, and helpful. It is a great distillation of value enhancers for almost any business. What I took the most out of though, was the team nature of providing services and how to best help on the personal side.

"Useful and engaging"
The CEPA credentialing program is by far the most useful and engaging content I’ve studied of any credential.

"The best exit planning credential out there"
This is the best exit planning credential out there. You get a great education through the class and you get continued support from the staff and the network that you get to know through the program.

"CEPA gave me a better vocabulary to use with business owners"
I have been doing exit planning since 2006 but did not call it Exit Planning at the time. CEPA gave me a better vocabulary to use with Business Owners to have more in-depth conversations. It also gave me a framework and process to talk through with Owners. My conversations went from messy to more succinct by going through the CEPA program.

"I went through the CEPA program to better educate myself on how to better invest in my company. In doing so, I've been able to not only increase the value of my company, but spread the wealth of knowledge to other small business owners in starting a new practice. This program helps owners uncover so many blind spots they don't even realize they have!"

"I am fully embracing the CEPA credential into my practice. It has opened up new connections all over the United States."

“For any CPA considering this, my comment to them would be that above all of the things that CPA’s do for their clients, nothing is more important than exit planning. A successful exit is the ultimate service a CPA can help provide to their clients..”
