CERTIFICATE in INVESTMENT PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT
The Certificate in Investment Performance Measurement (CIPM®) Program leverages the expertise of the CFA Institute to deliver practice-based approaches and develop skills for practical investment performance evaluation and manager selection.
The CIPM Program curriculum prepares you for effective investment performance (return and risk) evaluation, manager selection, and investment reporting based on the Global Investment Performance Standards (GIPS®) standards.
There is currently no charge for the CFA Institute Investment Foundations Program. This is an online program.
