Educational Support
A critical component of our Society is the outreach and resources we provide to CFA candidates. In 2008 the CFA Society of Minnesota launched an ambitious live instructional class in partnership with Stalla by Becker Professional Education and the University of St. Thomas. The Level I 16-session class will be offered in the spring and fall of each year. In the spring of 2009 these classes became available to both Level I and Level II candidates, and starting in January 2010 a Level III live class will be available. Classes are also offered at Level I in the Fall, for the December exam.
Prep Course Provider Partnerships
Stalla offers live classes for Level I, II, and III in partnership with the Society and the University of St. Thomas. All classes are held at the University of St. Thomas in Minneapolis on week night evenings and are taught by UST finance faculty. Stalla classes are also available online and in self-study CD formats. Additionally, study aides are available including flashcards, practice exams, and our new "Essential Facts & Formulas" booklet.
For more information on the live course described above, please visit the Stalla website at www.stalla.com/CFAMinnesota. Society members receive a $200 or $300.00 discount for the Stalla Review courses regardless of format choice (live, online, or self-study classes).
Stalla Tri Level Pay Upfront Program:
Stalla has a new pricing choice available to students in the United States that would significantly reduce their overall cost of purchasing their Stalla CFA review course. The program works as follows: If a student chooses to purchase all three CFA exam levels of Stalla’s Enhanced System course (any format), they can choose to pay upfront for the courses and receive a 25% discount off of the entire purchase. While all three courses would typically cost $4,770, they would instead pay $3,575. In exchange, candidates would have unlimited access to Stalla’s Enhanced system course programs (any format) for up to five years, with the ability to repeat course levels or progress to new course levels with continuously updated materials.

The Stalla Live Course is offered in partnership with the University of St. Thomas.
