Canadian Securities Course (CSC®) Exam 1 Mastery, Ace the CSC Exam 1: 1500 Qs on marketplace, economy, fixed-income, shares, derivatives & more—excel in finance!.
Course Description
The Canadian Securities Course® (CSC®) is a vital regulatory requirement if you plan to perform securities, mutual fund, or alternative fund transactions in Canada’s financial services industry. In today’s competitive environment, those who prioritize professional growth stand out from the crowd. Completing the CSC® through CSI® also meets the educational requirement for selling securities in Canada, as mandated by the Mutual Fund Dealers Association.
However, studying theory alone isn’t enough. Studies without active practice often fade from memory. Repeated exercise and real-world questions help “wire” this knowledge into your brain, ensuring you’re prepared not just to pass an exam, but also to excel in practical situations.
Six-Series Mock Exams
Our course features six mock exams designed based on Volume 1 of the CSC®. Each exam consists of 250 questions—1500 questions in total—significantly exceeding the real exam’s:
- Timing (5 hours)
- Multiple-choice format
- 60% passing score
These exams provide detailed explanations and help you track performance by chapter and topic. You’ll build confidence, refine your skills, and be fully prepared to excel in CSC® Exam 1.
