This interactive study session is designed for Level I CFA Program candidates and will focus on Fixed Income, the topic most requested by candidates following our previous study session.

Studying for the CFA Program can involve a lot of time working through the curriculum on your own. This session is an opportunity to put that study into practice, test your understanding and connect with other candidates preparing for the same exam.

Rather than a lecture-style class, you’ll work in small groups through questions, case scenarios and interactive activities. You’ll discuss different approaches, explain concepts to one another and challenge your thinking, with CFA charterholders on hand to facilitate the conversation.

The session will assume prior knowledge of the Level I Fixed Income curriculum. Candidates should only register if they have already completed, or are planning to complete, the relevant Fixed Income readings before the study session.

What you will gain:

• Put your Fixed Income study into practice and see where your understanding is strong and where you may need more revision
• Work through questions and scenarios with other Level I candidates
• Hear how other candidates approach concepts and problems
• Practise explaining and discussing concepts rather than studying them in isolation
• Meet other candidates preparing for the CFA Program and build connections that can continue beyond the session
• Connect with CFA charterholders over pizza and networking following the study session
