2013年CFA三級(jí)考試所涉及的知識(shí)結(jié)構(gòu)體系（全）

        雖然依據(jù)CFA協(xié)會(huì)的設(shè)計(jì)，CFA是一個(gè)自修課程，并未強(qiáng)制要求考生必須參加教育培訓(xùn)課程方可報(bào)考，然而對(duì)大部份繁忙的考生來說， 參加專業(yè)的課程還是公認(rèn)最有效率的方法。考生在選擇課程時(shí)，宜特別要注意講師對(duì)CFA考試的了解程度、相關(guān)CFA課程教學(xué)經(jīng)驗(yàn)是否充足、過去學(xué)員的表現(xiàn)及 編制的講義是否能有效地整理出課程重點(diǎn)等等。
