You May also be interested in passing the SIE Exam

Beginning in October 2018 the SIE Exam is a new regulatory exam that will allow candidates to demonstrate their mastery of the essentials of the financial industry. The exam will cover the foundational knowledge used in careers in investment banking, wealth management, sales and trading, and more.

The SIE exam is a prerequisite for many of the FINRA licensing exams including the Series 7 Exam.

This is a big change from the current exam structure, which requires individuals to be employed and sponsored by a FINRA-registered firm before taking an industry qualification exam.
