2. The first-level qualification and the second-level qualification are the divisions before the reform of the securities qualification examination. The original securities qualification is divided into five courses, and you can get the first-class qualification through three courses (which must include the Basic Knowledge of Securities), and all five courses are second-class qualifications. In reality, there are few requirements for first-class and second-class qualifications when recruiting, but there are requirements for securities investment analysis. Now that the securities qualification examination has been reformed, there is no problem of the first-level and second-level qualification examinations.
As mentioned above, the securities qualification examination has been reformed, and there is no longer a first-class or second-class division. Before the reform, subjects that have been tested do not need to be repeated.
4. At present, the securities qualification certificates are all managed electronically, and there is no paper certificate. Candidates can print their own single-subject transcripts as vouchers.
Before the reform, there was no fixed requirement for the examination order of five courses, so we chose to arrange it according to our own situation. The common order is basic knowledge, transaction, investment fund, investment analysis and issuance underwriting. Now it has been reformed, and there are only two courses: basic laws and regulations of securities market and basic knowledge of financial market.
I want to say that your understanding of this exam is obviously backward, which is basically the content before the reform and does not apply to the present. It is suggested to go to official website, and the China Securities Association should know the relevant contents, instead of Baidu directly. The content of Baidu search is mixed and not necessarily useful.
