Work Experience Guidelines
FOR THOSE CANDIDATES WHO WERE REGISTERED BEFORE THE 2005 EXAMINATION YEAR AND WHO SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETE THE PROGRAM BY 2007, THE FOLLOWING REQUIREMENTS AND WORK EXPERIENCE GUIDELINES APPLY.

Work Experience Guidelines For Eventual Award of the CFA? Charter

Three years of acceptable professional work experience are required before the CFA? charter can be awarded. This experience may be accrued while the candidate is in the CFA? Program, after the candidate has passed all three levels of examinations, or from previous positions.

Acceptable work experience includes activities that consist to a significant extent of collecting, evaluating, or applying financial, economic, or statistical data (as appropriate) as part of the investment decision-making process; or supervising, directly or indirectly, persons who practice such activities; or the teaching of such activities. The investment decision-making process is the professional practice of financial analysis, investment management, securities analysis, or other similar activities.

CFA? CANDIDATES ARE REQUIRED TO SPEND AT LEAST 40 PERCENT OF THEIR TIME IN THESE ACTIVITIES TO ACCRUE THE REQUIRED PROFESSIONAL WORK EXPERIENCE. Summer, part-time, and internship positions do not qualify. The following job titles are provided as a guide only. Job titles alone cannot convey the true nature of the underlying job duties.
