Two specific platforms

Training can meet a functional desire or an operational necessity. Alternatively, it aims to meet a regulatory requirement. That’s why we offer two learning platforms:

The first environment covers content and context of markets and trading, while the other podium covers conduct and culture.

Both platforms offer time-efficient self-study

The content is provided to learners in different ways:

  • Animation-style videos – English voice & subtitles;
  • Tutored lessons – slides & English voice;
  • eLearning -requiring an active participation;
  • Knowledge centre – reports, docs & videos;
  • Case studies- to practically apply know-how;
  • Glossaries;
  • Excel files – and other tools.

Instant certification

Upon passing any exam a candidate will be certified accordingly. Failure allows for retaking the exam to some extent. Having passed an exam still allows for accessing the course and the study materials.
