What is CFA® ?

The CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst) is a professional certification focused on expertise in finance and investment. It is a certification awarded by the CFA Institute, a global organization dedicated to setting the highest standards of financial excellence and professional ethics.

Who is the CFA Program for?

University students

looking to launch a career in finance, corporate banking or investment management.

Existing industry professionals

wanting to establish or enhance their credentials.

Professionals from other industries

who want to change the focus of their careers.

Why Should You Take CFA?

Currently, there are more than 190,000 CFA® charterholders worldwide, but in Indonesia, the number remains relatively small at around 400 professionals—significantly lower than in Singapore (5,000+) and Hong Kong (9,000+).

This presents a significant opportunity for Indonesian professionals to pursue the CFA® designation, especially as Indonesia is projected to become one of the world’s five largest economies by 2030. Such growth is expected to drive increasing demand for CFA® charterholders across the finance and investment industries.

CFA® Certification: Requirements & Process

CFA® Institute awards the CFA® charter to candidates who successfully pass Level I, Level II, and Level III examinations and meet the required eligibility criteria. The exams are administered as computer-based tests (CBTs) at authorized testing centers designated by CFA Institute.

Preparing for the CFA® exams requires a high level of commitment, as the average pass rate is approximately 40%, and candidates are generally recommended to dedicate at least 300 hours of study for each exam level.

I want to express my deep gratitude to Kaplan for their outstanding CFA Level 1 course. Two key factors have made my experience truly exceptional. Firstly, the instructors at Edupac are industry experts with practical experience, and their teaching style is incredibly detailed. Their firsthand knowledge, having successfully passed the CFA exams themselves, brings a level of expertise that greatly enhances the learning experience.

Secondly, Edupac's extensive question bank has been a tremendous asset in my preparation. The variety and quantity of questions available are unmatched, providing me with the confidence to tackle any question that might appear on the exam. Lastly, I recommend Edupac to anyone embarking on this challenging journey.

I have passed CFA level 1 which was held in February 2023 on my first attempt. I took the CFA Level 1 exam preparation course provided by Edupac Pondok Indah in August – November 2022. The course really helped me prepare for my CFA level 1 exam. Here, some of the excellent services they provide: first, the slide materials and videos provided by Edupac are very effective and include most of the required CFA materials.   Since I had limited time to study, this pack of CFA preparation slides and videos by Edupac helped me demonstrate and summarize the important lessons I needed to understand more deeply.

Second, there are thousands of related practice questions in the question bank that will help you familiarize yourself with CFA questions. Third, the program or website is user-friendly, the question bank and material packages are well organized, I can easily measure my learning progress and practice scores. Last but not least, all the tutors are professional and very knowledgeable on the topic, they will help you if you have questions related to exams or even professional practices regarding the topic. Thank you Edupac.

I'm grateful to Edupac for their exceptional study materials and the support of their experienced instructors, which were instrumental in helping me pass the CFA Level I exam. Their study notes were comprehensive and easy to understand, and the online question bank and mock exams provided ample opportunities for me to practice and assess my progress. Thanks to Edupac, I felt confident and well-prepared on exam day, and I'm excited to continue using their materials as I work towards becoming a CFA charterholder.

I strongly recommend Edupac & Kaplan Schweser to anyone who is preparing for the CFA exams, and I'm grateful for their contribution to my professional development.

Edupac has been (again) an incredible resource for me as I have gone through the CFA Level 1 and 2. It has created great content that provides the most important information from a section in a synthesized and easy to understand. Specifically, I have benefited the whole information that Edupac provides in areas where the other sources on the internet just simply provide a formula with little explanation.

The materials are very comprehensive, spending sufficient time to impart conceptual understanding and ensure a strong exam focus. Furthermore, the Mock Exams are challenging and expose my weak areas. Concisely written and accomplished the goal of an effective mock exam to test my knowledge and help guide my further revisions.

I have passed Level I of the CFA Program exam in my first attempt. Having an engineering undergraduate degree, I thought it would be difficult for me but my decision to join Kaplan made the task much easier. The lesson that everybody gets at Edupac is just phenomenal.

The materials like Q-Bank and the videos really help me to prepare for this exam. All the instructors are great and make everything simple to understand. Hence, after the classes, I feel more equipped not only to appear for the examination out of general knowledge of the finance industry. Once again thank you very much for your support and guidance.

Taking the CFA level 1 examination was definitely one of the major steps I made in my financial career and I am glad that I chose Edupac to be the one that helped me get through it. The explanation videos along with vast amounts of practice questions really helped me understand the topics as well as giving me an image as to what I can expect during the exam.

It is not an understatement to say that as long as you put in enough hours and preparations in utilizing the materials provided by Kaplan Schweser, you will have an ample chance to pass the examination

The passing rate for May 2021 has set the lowest record in the history, 25%! Despite of that number, I am glad to be one of the qualified students for continuing to CFA Level 2. I must say that I learned all the materials from Kaplan Schweser and their live-online course. Their e-platform, e-books, and lecturers were so astonishing! A detailed, comprehensive, and engaging class every evening.

I would be more than happy to discuss with the Edupac team regarding my Level 2 preparation course. And also, I highly recommend you to use Edupac too!

Edupapc is really helpful towards my success in passing CFA Level 1 exam. I used Kaplan Schweser study material as my main reading and practice materials. The explanation there helps me to understand the concept. The question banks are plenty enough.

I am also grateful for Edupac’s team of instructors who are available for me to chat if I have questions about the topic. Overall I would recommend Edupac for anyone who wants to take CFA exam!

Deciding to pursue the CFA designation is a big deal. I am lucky to have Edupac to assist me during my preparation for the level 1 exam. For a student like me with no prior real-world experience in the finance realm, the program is especially helpful. It allowed me to learn in real-time with multiple proficient lecturers, each with years of experience in the investment field.

The SchweserNotes, online videos, practice questions, and mock exams on Edupac platform also played a big role in my success in passing the test. Thank you Edupac!
