Testimonials

"I have recommended your program to our training department. I believe your program contains a wealth of knowledge for associates new to the mutual fund industry. My work experience at Russell has been focused in Operations. It was beneficial for my career to have a larger overview of the industry. This program was challenging and informative. I appreciated the web format and self direction which allowed me to complete the program in a timely manner, while still being able to perform my daily work functions."

"In participating in the Certified Mutual Fund Specialist, I enhanced my understanding of mutual fund concepts as well as industry and regulatory practices. The skills and information obtained from these courses have enabled me to contribute and demonstrate industry knowledge and facts in meetings and presentations. The courses were easy to understand and enjoyable to perform. I recommend this program to individuals (at any level) who wish to supplement to start their understanding of the mutual fund industry."
