The CAIA Curriculum:
Built by Investors, for investors
Included with your program registration access to the digital curriculum at no additional cost, our official curriculum is updated annually to incorporate relevant, practical industry developments and the latest academic research.
NOTE: Both the digital and print curriculum are only applicable for the calendar year. For example: the 2025 CAIA curriculum in both print and digital should be studied for exams taken in either March 2025 or September 2025. Use of prior editions is not recommended.
Planning ahead? The 2026 curriculum—for March and September 2026 exams—will be available for purchase starting October 13, 2025. This does not affect candidates registering for the September 2025 exam.
