Study Groups

Many candidates find that meeting with a small study group of four to six candidates on a regular basis helps them better structure their study time and remain motivated.  The study groups may meet at an agreed-upon time in a location convenient to all of the candidates in the group.  The study group meetings serve as an excellent forum for discussing the CFA reading material and sharing both expertise and moral support.  An added plus is that you are able to meet others in the industry and build your network of contacts.

Please let us know of your interest in participating in a study group (for Jun 2012 Exam) by completing the application form and returning it to us by 15th December 2011.  We will match you with candidates at the same level.  We will also try to group you with those who share your time and location preferences if possible.  You will be advised of the details of your group by January 2012.  Please note that we only accept applications from candidates who have registered for the 2012 Jun exam.  This service is free of charge.
