On Monday, I decided to try my hand at the Certified Financial Technician (CFTe) exams, which some claim to be the “CFA equivalent” for trading accreditation.
While I managed to pass, I was pretty sure I could have done better if I had studied for it. 😀
Why am I doing this?
Well, as a trainer, I think it is important to have some accreditation or qualifications (in addition to my double degrees and fund experience) to reassure people of the quality that they are getting. I mean, if you go to see a doctor, you would want to make sure he actually has a medical degree and the proper accreditation, and not simply trust him because he is “famous” or has a cool website/blog/video.
Hopefully, in time to come, MAS or SGX will impose some kind of minimum qualification or accreditations for all trainers, to ensure teaching standards and to prevent a market for lemons.
Wish me luck for Level 2! xD
Some quick updates on our daily forex and Gold trades, using blank charts with no indicators. Clean, simple, and effective! 😀
Last Saturday, I headed back to my Alma Mater (Singapore Management University) to attend our Alumni Day 2014, and was delighted to catch up with all my old school mates and seniors.
The school even arranged for a distinguished professor, Ang Ser-Keng, to provide us with some “tips” on how to invest for our dreams. Surprisingly, even in a business school, investing skills are still mostly lacking after graduation. 😀
Thank you for taking the time to submit all the job applications, we are flattered that so many people want to join our team. For the past few weeks, I have been working with my HR team to find people with the skills we need to grow the company and improve our trainings.
I am glad to announce that we have hired two new staff members, both successful graduates of the Synapse Program and current part-time traders. They will be helping us to support our growing student base and to help create new content.
Once again, we thank you for your applications, and stay tuned for future opportunities! 😀
