The 2017 Wiley CMAexcel Learning System is now available. Wiley and the IMA have worked closely to produce these updated texts and ensure they offer thorough coverage of the latest Learning Outcome Statements for the 2017 CMA Exam.

A thorough review of all textbook content has been completed to:

• Eliminate non-exam related content,
• Align coverage of content with the specific weight each topic relative to the total exam,
• Eliminate known errors and review for accuracy as well as relevance to the exam (e.g., eliminating coverage of “extraordinary items”),
• Add relevant new examples to support retention and retrieval.

Among the content updates (in italics) to this year’s textbooks are:
