FAQ’s

Is there a separate exam fee for all three levels of the program?

The Program fee is divided into a one-time program enrolment fee and separate registration fees for the three levels. For the Level I exam, the candidate needs to pay one-time program enrolment fees of USD 450 apart from the Registration fees. The Registration fee for all the levels is as follows:

Registration Type	Fees	Deadline (Approx.)
Early Registration Fee	USD 700	8 Months before the exam date
Standard Registration Fee	USD 1000	4 Months before the exam date
Late Registration Fee	USD 1450	3 Months before the exam date

As compared to CA, how are concepts different in the CFA® Program?

In order to practise as a chartered accountant, one needs CA as a mandatory qualification in India. As part of CA studies, students learn Auditing, Accountancy, and Taxation. The CFA^®Program, however, makes you eligible to work in any part of the world and the focus area of the Program is Investment Banking, Investment Advisory Services etc.

What is the difference between the CFA® Program and CIMA?

The CFA^® Program is focused on concepts related to core finance subjects like Investment Banking, Financial Instruments and its management for institutional investors. The program emphasizes on the analysis and research side as compared to accounting.

On the contrary, CIMA focuses on core accounting from the perspective of its use for the management.

Is the CFA® Program relevant for an Engineer?

It depends on a lot of factors and the engineer’s interests. After engineering, if you wish to get into the field of Finance, you will need an MBA degree from a reputed B School. Without this, it is often tough for engineers to switch to the finance field. However, the CFA^® Program makes it possible for engineers to switch into the field of finance and investments without an MBA also.

As an engineer who wishes to make finance a long-term career, you should totally opt for the CFA® Program?

Another important advantage that any engineer gets is his/her natural flair for quantitative problem-solving skills. These come in very handy in the investment industry. If you’re good at numbers and have an interest in finance, you should do the CFA^®Program after which you will find application in Fintech and quantitative finance fields that are some of the most dynamic careers today.

Should I study Financial Modelling along with The CFA® Program?

The CFA^®Program is a professional course while Financial Modelling is a skill based course. However both are relevant in the finance sector.

The CFA^® Program will teach you concepts such as Financial Reporting Analysis, Fixed Income and Economics etc. while Financial Modelling will teach you how to make projections or estimate net worth using financials. Pursuing both a professional course along with skill based course will help you get an edge over the others.

Being a finance professional and getting back to basics can be a daunting task. However the entire team at Proschool Chennai were always pushing us towards success with good infrastructure and conducting regular mocks. I will surely recommend this institute for the courses which they offer.
