The CFA® charter is the most
prestigious designation in the
field of Finance. It is globally
recognized standard for
measuring the competence and
integrity of Financial Analysts,
Portfolio Managers and Finance
Professionals. To obtain the
CFA® charter, CFA Institute has
set different requirements. One
is that candidates have to pass
three exams referred to as
levels I, II, and III.
Candidates are admitted to take
the next level exam after
passing the previous level exam.
The
CFA Program with its three levels of
examination verifies a candidate’s
ability to apply investment principles
across all areas of the investment
decision-making process. Also, the
program’s professional conduct
requirements demand that both CFA
candidates and charter-holders adhere to
the highest standards of ethical
responsibility.
In the competitive, rapidly evolving
profession of investment management, few
achievements will say more about CFA
Institute (formerly AIMR) commitment to
knowledge and high ethical standards
than earning the CFA charter. Employers
who understand the dedication that the
CFA Program requires often make the CFA
charter an eligibility requirement for
senior-level positions and frequently
are willing to pay for their employees
to participate in the program. Many
investors include the CFA charter in the
criteria they use to select the firms
and individuals who manage their
financial assets.

REGULAR COURSES CONTINUED
All seminars are interactive where candidates can participate, raise questions and get the necessary explanations. Instructors get frequent feedback about how prepared the candidates are by conducting in class exams based on previous CFA® exam questions, followed by corrections of the exams in class.
After passing 18-20 weeks of successive lectures, time comes to compile all the sessions in a full and intensive review sessions. This three-day program, which takes place 4 weeks just prior to the exam, is the perfect compliment to our five months long preparation course. Participants invest long hours reviewing complex problems in the critical areas of Accounting, Derivatives, Asset Valuation, Portfolio Management, and Fixed Income. New CFA Institute Study Session information is incorporated in this program, and attendees spend considerable time attempting and reviewing problems associated with specific CFA Institute learning outcome statements required for the CFA® examination. Attendees sharpen their focus on key exam components as well as topical subtleties that may have eluded them since the early weeks of preparation. Sessions devote considerable time to reviewing problem solving techniques, insights, important formulas and other need-to-know material. Moreover, participants experience the simulated, pressure-oriented exam conditions (mock exam) that will help mentally prepare them and improve their confidence in the final days before the actual exam.
