ANNOUNCEMENT/UPDATES: COVID-19 IMPACT ON CFA SOCIETY LOS ANGELES
Staff and member volunteers at CFA Society Los Angeles have been closely monitoring the circumstances involving the COVID-19 pandemic and have been taking all precautions necessary to ensure the safety of our members and community. As a membership association, we have long been committed to creating in-person opportunities for our members and community to connect and build relationships, but we also prioritize and value your safety and health. On March 10th, we decided to postpone or cancel all in-person events through June 15th. We will continue to observe guidelines by local agencies and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to keep members, stakeholders and staff safe in light of the evolving situation.
In the meantime, as an organization, we are unwavering in our commitment to assist you with professional development and career resources, which we understand must be as readily available as ever. We have already been leveraging preexisting web-based partnerships and pursuing new vehicles to offer more webinars and online experiences so that we can continue to provide you with the thought leadership and interconnectivity that you've come to expect from CFA Society Los Angeles. As we work to adapt swiftly, we would love to hear from you as to how we can best support you during these difficult and uncertain times. Please email us at info@cfala.org. Any and all suggestions would be greatly welcome and helpful.
We understand that this situation is evolving at a rapid pace and we plan to stay in communication with our membership via email as well as continue to provide updates on our website. Please click here for our full message and latest updates.

CFA INSTITUTE CAREER CENTER
We joined forces with CFA Institute to provide you with an online career solution. You can also find relevant positions around the globe posted by employers looking for CFA charterholders and CFA candidates who possess the right expertise and qualifications. Log in using your CFA Institute credentials to:
- Create your job seeker profile
- Upload your CV
- Set custom email alerts for new job postings
- Apply for available job postings
Members who had posted a resume and created a profile on the previous job site will need to create a new profile and upload their current resume. At this time Associate and Student members can view jobs, but will not be able to apply directly, create a profile or upload a resume. We are working with CFA Institute to make this possible.
Employers and Job Posters: Please contact info@cfala.org if you have any questions and to receive a coupon code which will give you free postings.
As part of our “Let’s Measure Up” branding campaign that’s building global awareness and recognition of your CFA Charter, we’ve just launched a new video clip that showcases some of the creative advertising work that’s running through June.
It features advertising examples across print publications, digital ad networks, social media platforms, and digital out-of-home screens in elevators and office buildings in targeted locations throughout the city. Also included is the takeover of LA Live for the 2018 CFA Institute Wealth Management Conference.
We know that building awareness of the CFA Charter is one of your top priorities, and our “Let’s Measure Up” campaign is doing just that – here in Los Angeles, and around the world.
If you haven’t already, be sure to visit letsmeasureup.org and keep an eye out for our digital ads in outlets such as Bloomberg, The Wall Street Journal, CNBC, Financial Times, LinkedIn, Facebook, and Google.
