The FIS Ski Jumping Continental Cup is a series of ski jumping competitions arranged yearly by the International Ski Federation. It is considered the second level of international ski jumping, ranking below the FIS Ski Jumping World Cup. Athletes competing in the Continental Cup are usually juniors and jumpers fighting for a spot on their nation's World Cup team. Some jumpers alternate between the World Cup and the Continental Cup, and therefore, the winner of the Continental Cup is not necessarily the best jumper.

The lower competitive circuits include the third level FIS Cup, the FIS Race and the Alpen Cup.

Standings: Men
