Any insight from past/current pupils on the course. Employment prospects in this current climate. Competition for places etc. Any other details would be fantastic, the university website is fairly poor! Thanks

Well, I live in the U.S. and could be COMPLETELY wrong, but I believe the college I attended does correspondence with UK schools in our Business Dept. I am led to believe this was either @ Cambridge or Oxford. The course might cost a bit, but I'm sure it will be very thorough. If that's not a viable option, try to find an online financial advisor company. They will have a wealth of information on these subjects as they deal with it on a daily basis.

Maybe trying Mutual Funds could be one of the ideas.Contact one in your area and I'm sure your fund manager will be delighted to help you with the saving and investing part.Fidelity is popular in UK, I'm told.

How about you visit www.cfp.net, you will find a professional view! But, take care, before you join the course, you must ask yourself whether you can put 15-20 hours weekly in studying, or not. Don't waste any money!

Sometimes a local high school (vocational) offers a basic investments or stock market course. There are a lot of books on the stock market. You can check on amazon.com or your local bookstore. The great thing about Amazon is that they have reviews that can be helpful at selecting the right book that matches your needs and skill level. My dad has been trading for years. It is not easy. He started out with buying stocks and mutual funds. He then went onto call options. Now he is doing more with options. (call and put) I was Series 7/63 licensed (brokers license) and spent 5 years in investments. I received a lot of training in finance and investments. I also have a business degree. I recently took a graduate finance class. It is complex stuff. I see why they get paid the big bucks, these investment professionals. So keep that in mind. It may take some time to absorb and understand. It's not perfect. If you think that you will learn everything you need to know to get started after one class then you might be mistaken unless you are really gifted, which you might be. I'm not. My dad isn't. He's read so many books on investing and the stock market over the years. He's now in an exclusive investment club. He has a lot of friends that have been investors for decades now. He would tell you that he's not an expert. There is a psychology to the market. Warren Buffett is the best investor ever. I would read a book that he's written if you want to make money. Stocks are subject to high risk. You can make a lot of money but you can lose too. Options trading is even riskier and should only be done by experienced investors because you need a margin account. Not everyone can get a margin account. You need so much capital and again, experience. You have to understand the risks involved. I'm sorry if I seem condescending. I don't mean to at all. I don't know you and by your question, I can't tell anything about you. How much experience do you have with investments? Do you have a 401K or IRA? I don't know of any online courses unless you go with a college course. Usually finance courses have prerequisites before you sign up. I took an Investments and Security Analysis class at Bentley College after I graduated from college. I took a Managerial finance course a few months ago in an MBA program. It was tough. I learned a lot about options when I was studying for the Series 7 and Foundations in Financial planning exam. I've gone to financial seminars. I know what they are about.
