Chartered Financial Analyst Preparation Program


Free Seminar on Sunday February 19, 2012 at 3:00 pm
The Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) designation is the fastest growing and the most prestigious professional credentials in the world and is a globally recognized standard for measuring the competence and integrity of financial analysts. Its curriculum develops and reinforces a fundamental knowledge of investment principles. Three levels of examination measure a candidate's ability to apply these principles at a professional level. All three exams are administered on paper, on a single day; the Level I exam is administered twice a year (usually the first weekend of June and December). The Level II and III exams are administered once a year, usually the first weekend of June. Both Level I and Level II are entirely multiple choice with no negative marking, while Level III consists of a session of short-answer questions and a session that is multiple choice. These CFA exams are administered by the CFA Institute, which is the world largest professional association of Investment professionals that has 90,000 members.

(February-May)

We have designed two modules of coursework that covers all the financial, economic, and accounting theory that a student must master for the Level 1 exam. The material covered in these courses is not restricted to CFA material but will cover additional topics as deemed appropriate by the instructor. In other words, these courses are not teaching to the test but are covering a body of knowledge that includes the topics covered in the Level I exam. As such, they will often include material a CFA student will see in Level II and III exams.
