Compare CFA® Level I Study Packages
Compare KeyPoint Learning’s three CFA® Level I study packages side by side. Each package includes the Level I curriculum, structured lessons, and realistic practice. The main differences are access length, progress tracking, support, and price. Choose the option that fits your schedule, budget, and study style.
How Do You Choose the Right CFA® Level I Package?
Start with the level of support you want.
If you want the most support before exam day
Elite gives you the most complete Level I package, with the longest access and the highest level of tracking and assessment.
If this is your first CFA exam
Premium is the recommended option for most first-time candidates because it balances structure, practice, flexibility, and price.
If you prefer independent study
Deluxe is the base package. It still gives you the core Level I materials, lessons, and practice tools at the lowest price.
Which CFA® Level I Package Is Right for You?
Here is the short version before the full details.
Deluxe
Base Package With Full Curriculum Coverage
Deluxe is the base package for independent candidates who want the core Level I materials at the lowest price.
It includes the curriculum coverage, structured lessons, and practice tools you need to start preparing. If you are disciplined and do not need extra tracking or support, Deluxe may be enough.
Premium
Recommended for Most First-Time Candidates
Premium is the package we recommend for most candidates preparing for CFA Level I. It balances structure, practice, flexibility, and price.
You get enhanced progress tracking, one renewal option if your timeline changes, and the core materials you need to study with direction.
For working candidates, the renewal option can be useful because study plans do not always go perfectly.
Elite
Most Complete Level I Package
Elite is for candidates who want the highest level of support before exam day. It includes the longest access, deeper progress tracking, and a score assessment to help you understand where you stand.
This package best suits candidates who want more guidance, more visibility, and the most complete Level I preparation option.
Built for Candidates Studying Around Work
Most CFA Level I candidates are not studying full time. They are fitting exam prep around work, university, or other responsibilities.
The right package should help you use limited study time well. That means a clear study path, organized materials, realistic practice, and progress tracking that shows what to review next.
The goal is simple: spend less time deciding what to study and more time making progress.
How to Choose Based on Your Study Situation
Find the situation closest to yours.
"I am just starting CFA Level I."
Premium is the safest starting point for most first-time candidates. It gives you structure, progress tracking, and a renewal option while you build your study rhythm.
"I work full time and need structure."
Premium is likely the best fit because the enhanced progress tracking and renewal option give you more flexibility around a busy schedule.
"I already know some finance but need practice."
Deluxe may be enough if you mainly need curriculum coverage, structured lessons, and practice quizzes without paying for extra support.
"My exam date is getting close."
Choose the package that gives you the level of tracking and support you need to find weak areas quickly. If you want the most visibility before exam day, Elite is the stronger option.
"I want the most complete preparation."
Elite is the best fit because it includes the longest access, deeper tracking, and score assessment.
