How is the MAIR program different from an MBA?
Unlike an MBA, the MAIR Program is specifically designed for people entering the investor relations field. MAIR students seek to increase their knowledge to compete and be successful in investor relations. They receive training in all the areas deemed crucial by the investor relations profession and embodied by the National Investor Relations Institute (NIRI). The MAIR program encompasses four major topics: Communications, Marketing, Legal, and Finance. Additionally, students in the program master many of the topics tested in the Level I Chartered Financial Analyst® (CFA®) exam. Completing and passing of this exam can enhance the credibility of an Investor Relations Officer, both within and outside the company.
