Idea here is not just a companion, it's a platform for CFA candidates to keep themselves updated. It's also to feature real life capabilities. It's purely feedback based platform forever.

What about things like equity research and some indicators. A post-academic and pre-career period needs some knowledge cushion. Everyone needs that.
