We will help you prepare for the CFA® Level 1 Exam.

A record number of candidates register to take the CFA® exams. Pursuing the credential is a rigorous process, which requires a lot of time and effort. And yet, many people around the world sign up for the CFA® exams. The reason is that a CFA® designation can move your resume to the top of the pile in a competitive job market.

We are proud to present you a training bootcamp created by 365's team that aims to prepare you for the CFA® Level 1 exam provided by CFA Institute.

The five topics we will cover here are:

· Ethical and Professional Standards

· Portfolio Management

· Economics

· Corporate Finance

· Alternative Investments

This Bootcamp has been designed as a supplement to the official study materials provided by the CFA Institute and should not be seen as a substitute for these materials. Our goal is to make your life a bit easier. The lessons we have prepared are consistent with the current CFA® Level 1 curriculum and exam structure (and will continue to be updated to ensure consistency over time). We cover all Learning Outcome Statements (LOS), and we have dedicated a separate video to each LOS. This ensures that together we will study the concepts that are likely to be tested on the exam.

Why take our Bootcamp?

· A successful track record on Udemy – over 1,750,000 students have enrolled in our courses

· Carefully scripted and animated tutorials with plenty of real-world examples

· A variety of practice questions at the end of each Reading to test your progress

· Extensive case studies that will help you reinforce what you have learned

· Excellent support: If you don’t understand a concept or you simply want to drop us a line, you’ll receive an answer in one or two business days

· Dynamic: We don’t want to waste your time! The instructors keep up a very good pace throughout the whole course.

We will cover a wide variety of topics, including:

Ethics

Ethics and trust in the investment profession, Code of Ethics and Standards of Professional Conduct, the Global Investment Performance Standards (GIPS)

Quantitative Methods

The time value of money, Discounted cash flow applications, Statistical concepts and market returns, Probability concepts, Common probability distributions, Sampling and estimation, Hypothesis testing, Technical analysis

Moreover, our focus is to teach topics that flow smoothly and complement each other. The course covers exam concepts at a fraction of the cost of traditional programs (not to mention the amount of time you will save).
