This is a self-study course that is based on a blended design (online + print) and is delivered over two segments:
- An introductory segment
- An applied segment
The introductory segment will introduce the learner to commodity markets and commodity derivatives, besides key concepts that form the base of commodity trading. The applied segment will focus on commodity price analysis and trading strategies on the exchange. Learners will need to clear a test that is based on the introductory segment, before they can start-off on the applied segment.
The self-study material is a blend of:
- E-Learning modules that are further divided into units, each of which focuses on a clear learning objective.
- Study manuals that cover each of these units in detail, questions at the end of every unit, and caselets/examples.
The overall course engagement for a typical learner is estimated at:
- 15 hours of e-learning by logging on to the Learning Management System
- 30 hours of self-study using the study manuals
- It is estimated that a typical learner will be able to cover the entire course and go for the certification test in about 4 weeks from commencement
- Those familiar with commodities or commodity trading or others who are able to devote more time may choose to adopt an accelerated path and finish earlier.
