Private Equity Training

Why Complete a Private Equity Training Program? 

There are many training programs to prepare you for a career in investment banking and traditional business fields.  But there are very few catering to the needs of those who would like to work in private equity.  I talk to young professionals every day who want a program that focuses exclusively on private equity.  The Certified Private Equity Professional program is designed specifically with these professionals and students in mind. 

On the other hand, some professionals feel that a certification or training program is a waste of time but the number of private equity portfolio managers, partners and analysts that list certifications on their background suggests otherwise.  A certification inspires confidence in your clients who know that you have been trained specifically in your field and that you are knowledegable about the industry. 

Similarly, a certification in private equity demonstrates to potential private equity employers that you are passionate about working in private equity and willing to invest your time toward that goal.  I believe that completing a training program is a great way to build your skills and knowledge about the industry, network with other participants and firms, and add a valuable experience to your private equity resume.

Certified Private Equity Professional (CPEP) program is a private equity training and certification program that may be completed by anyone 100% online in 3-6 months.  This Private Equity Training program provides participants with a strong knowledge of private equity and prepares them for a career in the industry.  Our staff has invested time and effort to develop the CPEP program and we have built many valuable tools for our participants including: a private equity career workbook, several videos on different aspects of private equity, a resume template and many other resources.  Graduates can enter the private equity job market feeling confident with the preparation they receive through our Private Equity Training Program.

Our program is limited to just 25 professionals per quarter, and after joining you can choose from one of four examination dates per year including: January 15th, April 15th, July 15th or October 15th. The entire program including the exam is completed online with no testing centers or travel required.  Individuals have already signed up for this program, to reserve your spot before we reach the 25 member limit, please see this page.
