Area of Interest

CFA Society Los Angeles provides numerous volunteer opportunities that vary between participating in a single event to year-round commitments (belonging to a Advisory CouncilCommission, or Standing Committee).

  • The Advisory Councils serve to provide an outlet for members to participate in smaller groups that focus on specific areas of interest.

  • The Commissions are an opportunity for members to get more involved with assisting in the management of the Society and helping to forward its mission, whether it be volunteering for an info session, a few months of planning for the Economic & Investments Forecast Dinner, providing social and networking opportunities year-round.
