Prepare Your Students for Careers in Finance
With institutional access to CFI, faculty can equip students with applied skills and competencies from across corporate finance. This matters because employers increasingly expect candidates for internships and entry-level finance roles to arrive with the skills required for the role.
CFI is accredited by HLC, NASBA, and Walbrook Institute London, reflecting our commitment to rigorous professional education standards.

What Universities Are Saying About CFI
“Some students have taken the initiative to complete additional courses and certifications that were not assigned in class. The variety of courses available and the quality of the material made CFI a natural extension of our curriculum."
- Arkansas State University
"We adopted CFI as an optional resource to help students build foundational knowledge in finance and capital markets. The results have been clear—students are more employable, and they're engaging with concepts they never had exposure to before. As an administrator, the ability to track progress, set mandatory courses, and access a wide range of learning outcomes has been invaluable."
- University of Toronto
