Commitment to Certified Equity Professionals’ Institute reinforces Global Shares strategy to redefine equity management.
The Certified Equity Professional Institute (CEPI) in California provides a rigorous self-study certification course over 3 levels which are tailor-made for the equity compensation industry.
It offers excellent networking opportunities to build rapport and connections within the global equity industry. Crucially it ensures that Certified Equity Professionals (CEPs) keep pace with changes in the industry as they are required to complete 30 hours of continuing education every two years to maintain their accreditation.
What are the benefits of working with a CEPI compensation equity professional?
- Enhanced knowledge in the core disciplines of equity compensation: Accounting, Equity Plan Design, Analysis and Administration, Corporate and Securities Law, and Taxation
- Trained to anticipate legal, tax and accounting issues before they become a problem; saving time, legal fees and mental angst
- Increased confidence to handle complex queries
