Milken Institute HBCU Strategic Initiative and Fellowship Program
Through our collaboration with the Milken Institute’s HBCU Fellowship Program, we’re addressing the untapped potential within Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). This initiative is designed to bridge the gap between talented HBCU students and the opportunities available in alternative investments, where diverse voices can drive real change. Learn more here.
Sponsors for Educational Opportunity (SEO)
CAIA and SEO have joined forces to unlock opportunities for underrepresented talent in finance. SEO, known for its innovative approach to education, mentorship, and support, has a proven track record of turning untapped potential into greatness. By fostering a high standard of excellence and building strong peer networks, SEO helps individuals realize their full potential. Together, CAIA and SEO are expanding this mission within the alternative investment space through scholarships, educational resources, and mentorship. Learn more here.
