Certifications That Get to Work

Hiring isn't easy

Finding quality candidates who are eager to learn and grow is a big challenge.

It’s hard to predict performance

No matter how great their resume might look, there’s no telling how your new hire will really do on the job.
New hires ramp up too slowly

Candidates without the right training often need hand-holding and distract your existing team.
You can’t be sure of what they’ve been taught

Potential new hires might have picked up dated practices from previous employers or training.

Cut through the noise with a CFI-certified candidate

Hiring someone who’s taken the initiative to get a high-level certification means you’re bringing on a go-getter who’s prepared to contribute.

Role-ready

CFI-trained hires are productive from the start. They’ve received role-specific training and practical resources to use on the job – and even get ongoing learning.

Demonstrated commitment

CFI certification requires more than 100 hours of learning, typically over four to six months. Our students go the extra mile to learn and will for you too.

Skill depth and breadth

CFI gives students practical skills like analysis, but they also teach soft skills like work politics and communication (so you won’t have to).

Real-world best practices

Our students don’t just memorize theories and concepts. They learn hands on by working on the same type of projects they’ll do for you.

Proven ability

A CFI certification means the candidate has the knowledge and skills they need to perform and be successful on the job – and have nailed the exam to prove it.

Comprehensive and up to date

CFI learners get access to fresh content with the latest developments in corporate finance, modeling and analytics – no dated lessons here.
