Kamlesh KalikeM Tech, Manager - Transaction Advisor
I had taken up EduPristine classes for Level I CFA®. The coach and the trainers provided in-depth knowledge not only about the subject-matter but also about the industry. The trainers were highly qualified and explained all the difficult topics using examples which were not very difficult to relate to. They were very supportive and inspiring and also provided ample tips and tricks for exams. EduPristine also conducts mocks, both offline and online, and provides comprehensive solutions for each question. Their online material is good and the videos are precise. They also provide placement assistance. Overall, my experience with EduPristine was good.

One of the most efficient academic experiences I've ever had. Good academic structure and institution for students and professionals to pursue CFA and related courses.
Sauryan Rajendra DafleBBA (IB) - Private Fund Manager
The beauty of this course is to have lots of practice. If one chooses to do it seriously, he is done with the subject. Trainers are also very good and are from a good industrial background. Whenever possible they try to relate this to real world examples. I am going to attend this again for topics that I missed out. I could actually solve my real work problem using the example demonstrated in the class. Thank you EduPristine.
