Although there are no formal qualification criteria, project controllers usually have graduate level training in project management or finance such as [[master of science in finance|MSF]] or [[MBA]] degrees, or are [[qualified accountant]]s (i.e. CIMA, CCA, ACCA, CGA, [[Certified Management Accountant|CMA]], or CA designation). "Industry experience" is often a pre-requisite and so controllers often have undergraduate degrees in related fields. Also, many analysts originally enter this ___domain through their practice as consultants or accountants and so a very wide range of qualifications is common.<ref>[http://usjobs.deloitte.com/jobs/306827-Consulting-Project-Controller-Project-Financial-Analyst.aspx Deloitte Project Controller Qualifications] Deloitte November 8, 2010.</ref>
In some firms, it is (additionally) preferred that analysts earn a professional certification such as the [[Chartered Institute of Management Accountants]] (CIMA) [[Chartered Financial Analyst]] (CFA) designation, or the [[Certified International Investment Analyst]] (CIIA) designation. However, professional designation is rarely a requirement, and many have reached the peak of the profession without ever sitting for the CFA or the CIIA exam.
Basic [[analytical skills]], and strong numerical skills are necessary and a proficient understanding of and experience with [[Microsoft Excel]] is usually required.
