Prep course for CFA test goes mobile

SEP 22, 2013
The American College of Financial Services last Monday launched AnalystSuccess.com, a mobile preparatory program for the college's signature chartered financial analyst designation. The American College's CFA candidate program offers web-based packages that are both self-guided and instructor-led. The CFA Institute administers the CFA designation. Depending on which package is chosen, the candidate can have access to video exercises and instruction, personal mentors and live online problem-solving webinars, all leading up to the examination for the mark.

'Need to succeed'

“A team of 17 top subject matter experts has collaborated to create the AnalystSuccess program with a focus on what candidates really need to succeed,” Larry Barton, president and chief executive of The American College, said in a statement. The tool kit is scheduled to be released Nov. 4. Representatives from The America College were not available for comment.
