CFAH & Rice University announce alliance of CFA® Exam Preparation Courses

CFAH and the Rice University Susanne M.Glasscock School of Continuing Studies have formed an alliance to provide professional exam preparation courses for candidates for the Chartered Financial Analyst® exams. 

The broad-based curriculum of the CFA® Program compels candidates to build a working knowledge of principles across core areas of the investment industry, from quantitative analysis and economics to portfolio management and asset valuation. When you establish a familiarity with these core areas, you not only equip yourself with the knowledge you need to make better investment decisions, you also become a more viable candidate to assume positions with a wider range of responsibilities.  Enrollment is now open and can be initiated through the Glasscock School of Continuing Studies Web page.

SCHWESER STUDY NOTES INCLUDED!
The enrollment fee includes the cost of the Schweser Study Notes,
which will be used during the preparation courses.

CFA Exam Preparation Course Schedule
Each preparation course includes a Mock Exam to further acquaint the candidates with the exam procedures and format.  For more information on fees, course descriptions, and faculty biographies please go to the Glasscock School of Continuing Studies Web page.   ** Level II and III preparation courses are only held in the spring.  They are not available in the fall. Spring dates are posted by November 1st each year.
