Chartered Financial Analyst Designation WES and Job Prospects

[eecandidate]

Does WES evaluate CFA designation from CFA Institue, USA and what are the job prospects in Canada for CFA?

 

[Asivad Anac]

WES or any of the other designated agencies would not be able to assess CFA because it is a professional qualification and not an educational qualification.

There should be good opportunities for CFA in Canada, probably not as many as in US. Check the job boards to confirm this for yourself.

All the best!

The National Recognition Information Centre for the United Kingdom (NARIC) has clearly mention in there “International Benchmarking Analysis of CFA Institute Qualifications” that CFA level 3 and designation is equivalent to MASTER DEGREE. IN CANADA.
then why WES is not ready to accept it and do the assessment for it.?

Cant compare NARIC with WES.

Your job prospects will depend more on your work experience than on any certifications. The CFA will help, but it is fairly common in Canada and won't serve to open doors for you here.
