Canadian Securities Course

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Canadian Securities Course (CSC), offered by the Canadian Securities Institute (CSI), is the initial course required for becoming licensed to work within the Canadian securities industry (outside Quebec) as a securities dealer or securities agent. It is generally taken with employer sponsorship, as any actual registration generally requires work experience as well as relevant current employment in addition to the educational requirement.

The CSC can also be used to satisfy the educational requirement necessary to sell mutual funds in Canada, as set out by the Mutual Fund Dealers Association.

The CSC consists of two exams and must be completed within 1 year of registration in the course.
