elearning

FinanceTalking now offers regulatory training via elearning modules. Our first elearning programme focuses on Market Abuse. The full regulatory elearning package will be available later this year and will also include modules on Disclosure & the Financial Calendar and The Rules for Takeovers & Mergers.

elearning allows you to select modules most relevant to your training requirements, offers a low cost alternative to open courses and allows you to ensure compliance with all the relevant law, regulations and codes.

Market Abuse Package

The FinanceTalking Market Abuse elearning Package comprises:

• Two interactive modules, explaining market abuse, how it relates to you and how to reduce the risk of committing it
• An end of course test, which includes scenarios you are likely to encounter at work
• Annual reminders and retests to update on any changes
• A full learning management system to monitor your learners completion of the training and their final test results

The elearning modules appear in a course player, which has useful functionality such as the ability to read the script, control the pace of the training and email the tutor.  We use visuals, audio and plenty of interactivity to keep our learners interested and alert.

Learners simply need speakers or headphones and a flash player.

WHO IS THIS AIMED AT?

Anyone working in a quoted company environment with access to confidential information would benefit from this thorough and practical approach to what to do to avoid market abuse. The module design allows everyone in your organisation - corporate communicators, consultants, support staff and HR/IT staff – to benefit from a practical approach to understanding the rules and applying best practice in the day-to-day work environment.
