Concordia University’s Goodman Institute of Investment Management at the John Molson School of Business has been named the first school in Canada and one of the first in the world to become a Program Partner of Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) Institute.

This educational partnership with the Goodman Institute acknowledges that the program allows business students to study for both their MBA academic qualification and their professional designation at the same time.

To be awarded an official CFA partnership a university must offer at least 70%t of the courses required for all three levels of the CFA Program. Concordia offers one hundred percent of these courses and Goodman students regularly double or triple the world pass rate for these exams.

The only other universities to be awarded CFA Program Partner designation so far are Said Business School (Oxford University, U.K.), Bocconi University (Milan, Italy), Boston and Marquette Universities (U.S.) and Hong Kong University of Science and Technology.
