The CSA^TM Charter is a professional designation, not an academic degree program. We are working with accredited universities and colleges to develop degree programs leading to the CSA professional designation in investment research.

We aspire to build the CSA Program into a “Practical PhD” in Value Investing. Due to our focus on real-world research, our program would be a great compliment to various Master Programs and PhD Programs in business, accounting and finance.

We invite universities, graduate business schools, professional institutions and other job-related training programs to work with us and build programs that lead to both an academic degree and a CSA professional designation.

We invite high schools and primary schools to work with our “Junior Division” to develop investment literacy programs as early preparations to earn the CSA Charter in the future.
