Time limit for CFA charter possible, clearing, somebody, background

disiz64

Hi all.

I want to know one thing. I'm an engineer and do not have any background in finance as such. I do plan on working in the finance sector once I finish the CFA program. Could somebody please tell me what is the time limit for claiming the CFA charter after completing the CFA program i.e. after clearing all the three levels? Will it be possible for me to get the CFA charter after, say, 5-6 years of clearing all the three levels?

That's hilarious, you do stand up?

Without acquiring the 4 years of relevant work experience, as judged by CFAI, you won't be able to 'claim a CFA Charter' regardless of how quickly you progress through the program.
