Structured Investment Education That Actually Works
Build genuine market understanding through practical frameworks and real-world analysis, not promises
We've been teaching investment fundamentals since 2019. Our approach focuses on developing analytical skills and risk awareness—the kind of education that prepares you for realistic market conditions. Starting September 2025, we're offering a comprehensive programme designed for people who want to understand how markets actually behave.
Book a Programme ConsultationHow the Programme Works
Three distinct phases across ten months. Each builds on the previous one, moving from foundational concepts through to independent portfolio analysis.
Phase One
Market Fundamentals
Understanding how financial markets function, the role of various asset classes, and basic valuation principles. You'll work through real company financials and learn to read market data without the typical jargon overload.
12 weeks, September–November 2025
Phase Two
Risk Assessment
Moving beyond theory into practical risk evaluation. We examine historical market events, discuss volatility patterns, and explore how different strategies respond to changing conditions. The focus is on realistic expectations rather than optimistic projections.
14 weeks, December 2025–March 2026
Phase Three
Portfolio Development
Applying everything to build diversified portfolios aligned with specific goals and risk tolerance. You'll present analysis to peers, receive feedback, and refine your approach based on actual market conditions during the programme period.
14 weeks, April–June 2026
