Creating and/or using multiple accounts is strictly prohibited. This includes, but is not limited to, attempts to:

  • Register for multiple programs or certificates
  • Reset exam attempts or circumvent limitations on exam attempts
  • Restart participation in the CFA® or CIPM® Programs
  • Submit multiple scholarship applications
  • Bypass restrictions or holds on an existing account 

If you are experiencing issues accessing your account, please contact CFA Institute for assistance rather than creating a new account.
