Membership Sponsors

To engage a Houston Society member to serve as your Sponsor, please adhere to the following steps:
 
  1. Prepare a resume including your current job title / position, or other descriptive information about your current and previous job positions along with your candidate / ID number (which you will receive after applying online). 
     
  2. Sign on to CFA Institute (CFAI) website (www.cfainstitute.org) to register and apply for membership.  You will receive an email from CFAI containing a link to the sponsor submission tool.
     
  3. When you receive the CFAI email response with the Sponsor’s submission link, email or call the Sponsor to inquire if they are willing to serve as your sponsor.  Please do not contact potential sponsors until after you have completed steps # 1 and  # 2 above.  This simplifies the process and prevents any unforeseen delays. 
     
  4. Forward the received CFAI email with the link to the Sponsor attaching your resume for his / her use.
     
  5. Sponsors can then review your information and respond directly and efficiently with CFAI.
Your assistance in the above steps is very much appreciated and should help ensure timely processing.
