Local Level Support for Societies and Faculty

Kaplan Schweser has been actively engaged in the CFA Institute Research Challenge for more than 5 years. We understand that the event starts at the local level and we are happy to continue our support of faculty, participating students, and local hosting societies.

In addition to the technical knowledge required to make it through each round, our experts provide tips and tricks for soft skills such as public speaking and effective teamwork.
