🎓The CFA Program

Whether an individual is an aspiring or practicing investment professional, the CFA Program offers a way to move forward and achieve professional goals. The curriculum is developed by CFA Institute, one of the world’s leading associations of investment professionals.

WHAT IS A CFA CHARTER?
A Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA®) charter is a designation given to those who have completed the CFA® Program and completed acceptable work experience requirements. The CFA Program is a three-part exam that tests the fundamentals of investment tools, valuing assets, portfolio management, and wealth planning. The CFA Program is typically completed by those with backgrounds in finance, accounting, economics, or business. CFA charterholders earn the right to use the CFA designation after program completion, application, and acceptance by CFA Institute. CFA charterholders are qualified to work in senior and executive positions in investment management, risk management, asset management, and many more related positions such as institutional sales, private equity and private wealth management.
Benefits of being a CFA Charterholder
Why the CFA Level 1 Pass Rate Remains Low
Despite growing global interest in the CFA® Program,only 35%–45% of candidates typically clear Level 1.
The low pass rate at CFA Level 1—typically between 35% and 45%—is not a reflection of a candidate’s intelligence, but rather of structural challenges in the learning approach. Most students come from a background of structured, classroom-based learning, where concepts are taught sequentially and doubts are clarified in real time. Suddenly transitioning to a self-paced, self-managed learning model, without guidance or accountability, can lead to inconsistency, knowledge gaps, and lack of direction. This shift often becomes the biggest hurdle—not the complexity of the syllabus, but the absence of a system to master it.

BENEFITS TO STARTING YOUR CFA JOURNEY EARLY
Utilize your time in university
Many universities have partnerships with CFA Institute that can help prepare you for the CFA Program. Even if your school or program doesn't directly teach the CFA Program curriculum, your CFA Program study time will be enhanced by your business and finance courses.
Take advantage of your head start
You are already used to studying, and if you are in a finance-related degree, you are well prepared to tackle the more advanced, higher education curriculum of the CFA Program.
Provides a powerful alternative to MBA
While a traditional MBA program offers a broad business curriculum, the CFA Program curriculum specifically focuses on investment analysis and portfolio management. Completion of the program provides a deep knowledge of investment principles and ethics, graduate-level expertise and a respected certification as a Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA).
"If you hire investment professionals with a CFA [designation], you absolutely have confidence at the level of qualification. You can hire people with an MBA, but you don’t necessarily know that one MBA is the same as another MBA."
