Question about Education requirements

[limeade]

Hey guys, I understand that federal agencies, more specifically the FBI will higher you only if an applicant falls into 5 or so categories. Law/Acc/Lang/Det/Spc.

Now here is my question, I have heard that the FBI is also interested in Finance majors as well. Now obviously just like accounting, this would only pertain to upper level certified individuals, such as CFAs. Does anyone know if this is true? I really enjoy finance, and I would like to go and get my CFA, which is a long process, but I would also like to know that this may in some way benefit me as far as FLEO work goes. I also plan on getting my law degree, but that is not a definite

I have looked, and found some reason to believe this is true, but I want to make sure it's not Finance with 20+ hours of accounting which is essentially an accounting degree.

Thanks for the info. However I'm more interested in non 1811 positions. I have been to the website numerous times, but the information is lacking.

Thanks for you help though, at least nobody jumped the gun and bitched me out for something that I wasn't even referring to.

I know this is a tad old, but I never got a chance to thank you! It's finals time for me "Trimester school" and I totally forgot.
