FRM® prep classes start in September

Following the successful launch of the only instructor-led live FRM® classes in the US last year, we are delighted that Christian Cooper will again be running three classes in the Fall. Since its introduction in 1997, the FRM® designation has become the defacto standard for risk managers globally - there are now over 24,000 qualified FRMs worldwide. By making NYIF your partner in preparing for the exams, you are taking an important step in achieving this valued designation. There are two courses to supplement your studies and help you prepare for the Part I and Part II exams. Each class takes place over 5 weeks:
- FRM® Exam Part I Prep Class: starts September 7, 2010
- FRM® Exam Part I Prep Class: starts October 13, 2010
- FRM® Exam Part II Prep Class: starts October 12, 2010
Each participant will receive Christian's new 400-page book, to support your studies. Offering practical advice and insight from someone who has passed the exams, this will be an invaluable keepsake. Secure your place now!

"Working at..." Exciting new offering from NYIF

Having run thousands of training courses, NYIF has come to know and understand what makes companies tick. We know that many staff do not know the true strengths of the companies they work for and this, in turn, leads to missed opportunities.
"Working at" is a new training course designed by NYIF for companies to hold in-house. It's all about knowing the company you work for - its mission statement, vision, goals, operations, the risks and challenges they face, how they make money, their place in the industry, and their awards and recognition. It's all about being able to articulate to clients what your company does, what it stands for, what are the strengths of your company and why they should do business with you. How can you work for a company and sell their products without knowing what they really do, their values, their goals and strategies? The course is interactive and will be customized for your company.
If you would like to know more about "Working at" and how it can be tailored to your company, email Katy Rahe for more information.

Hot Topic - Introducing the Global Financial Markets

Starts September 14, 2010
Introducing the Global Financial Markets looks at the complex international environment, showing how circumstances in one country can have a dramatic effect on the financial environment in many others. Over the course of eight evenings, you will learn about a wide range of topics that includes the markets and key players, fixed income, the role of central banks, investment banks, bond, equity and derivatives markets, and regulation. Plus, delegates will have an opportunity to hear Ralph Acampora, guru of technical analysis, explain how this prediction technique has made its mark on the markets. This course is recommended for all new banking graduate trainees and anyone selling to the 'financial markets' or working in a support role, e.g. audit, regulation, compliance, risk, middle office, back office, law, HR, sales/marketing, and public/investor relations. Register today to reserve your spot!
