June CFA Program Exams

For the safety of our global community, CFA Institute has made the decision to postpone the June 2020 CFA Exam administration.

Knowing that candidates have spent hours studying and preparing for the June exam, we want to give you the opportunity to test as soon as possible. We are working with our partners around the world to determine when we can offer the exam to you.

Do not withdraw from the June 2020 exam; we will contact you via email with more information and options by early May.

Please be patient as we work to serve the hundreds of thousands of candidates who planned to sit for the June 2020 exam. This postponement is of an unprecedented scale and we are working to ensure that we have the capacity to manage the volume of registrations we need to process.

March CIPM Exams

CFA Institute has not made changes to the CIPM exam administration for March 2020. For test center actions and updated closure information, read this special notice from Prometric regarding COVID-19. Note that Prometric has closed all North America test centers as of 18 March 2020. If your test center is closed, Prometric will contact you directly, and CFA Institute will defer your March 2020 exam to the September exam administration. You will be notified when your deferral is complete.

If you are experiencing symptoms or have been diagnosed with COVID-19, please do not appear at the testing location but contact CFA Institute to make alternate arrangements for your exam.
