CFA in Pakistan

[alishan]

Hello Guys!
I just received an information brchure from bpp.com of UK about CFA and i was stunned to hear it would cost alost 10-15 lakh while studying in UK.
It is no surprise that education at high level is expensive in UK but cani know if tere exists any institute in pakistan teaching CFA classes and particularly in Lahore.
SKANS is a nice institute teaching CA,CIMA & ACCA but i have,nt heard about their CFA teaching.
Can u plese tell me how much would it cost and theinstitute arranginf its classes.
I really am looking for some degree like it but would be forced to choose ACCA due to cost and unavailibility of teaching institut.[8]

Are you also interested in CFA? by their advertisement about CFA, such seems that they ppl will guide us how to study and from where to study, we wil have to study ourselves. only two classes per week. anyways, if you have some more information, plz share it with us also.

yes cfe is providing coaching for all three parts of cfa and your teacher is also a cfa ( in last level or may be qualified )
currently they hav a good class running which include students like graduates of lums, ACA's,,ACCA's which r also working with companies , on very good posts like audit managers, accountans manager, etc, so u may found a nice atmosphere
