Learning Experience: The content is good enough to get familiar with the Investment Industry and its norms. One just have to read all the training material provided followed by a test in order to get a certificate
Faculty: This is purely a non faculty course wherein you have to study the documents that the course offers post registration and on the basis of the same appear for the test to get a certificate. Yes the course curriculum was updated. The thing I liked the most is the content was properly bifurcated into smaller chapters which became easy for me to cover every possible thing.
Course Support: This is really helpful as it adds a key word into a resume as CFA, which increases the visibility of the candidate.
