The CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst®) Program is a widely acknowledged qualification for evaluating the skill, experience, and ethics of professionals who are looking to excel in the field of investments. The acquisition of the CFA® charter in Kuwait or anywhere across the world exhibits a comprehensive understanding of advanced investment and portfolio management.

The CFA Program consists of three levels, each building on the knowledge and skills you developed in the previous level. CFA recommends a minimum of six months, around 300 hours of study, for each level in the charter. As you also need to accumulate 48 months of approved work experience, it will take around four years to complete the full CFA Program.

To study any level in the CFA Program, you must have a Bachelor’s degree, or be completing the final year of your degree. Alternatively, you could have four years of relevant qualified work experience, or have a combination of work and university experience from the last four years. Additionally, you must meet the CFA Program professional conduct admission criteria, have a valid passport and be able to take your exams in English.
