申請證書時的工作經驗是如何確認的?

　　如果我中途跳槽了，那以前的工作經驗如何確認?難道還要去找老單位?

　　只需要您現在的雇主對你提交的工作經驗簽字認可并推薦您加入CFA協會，再加上一個CFA資格持有人推薦就可以了加入CFA協會并獲取CFA頭銜，工作經驗可以在考前、考中和考后都可以累計。

　　申請成為CFA持證人需要多少年的工作經驗?

　　在通過CFA三級考試后，需要4年(48個月)被認可的專業工作經驗，不論是參加CFA考試前、考試中、考試后積累的工作經驗，都是被認可的。

　　被認可的工作經驗有哪些?

　　認可的工作經驗包括：直接參與投資決策過程或者為投資決策過程提供支持等相關工作。

　　參見以下職位列表和相關工作經驗的描述：

　　職位列表舉例

　　職位本身的名稱不能直接決定是否被CFA協會認可，主要是日常工作中涉及到的職務內容必須50%以上和投資決策相關的才是被認可。如果所從事的工作在以下舉例的職位以外，但工作中涉及的職務內容和投資決策相關，亦可提供詳細的工作經驗給CFA協會，也是被認可的。
