About
It’s more critical than ever for individuals to have a firm grasp of the financial world – including you, the investor. That’s why CSI is proud to offer the Canadian Securities Course (CSC®) for Investors.
The content for the CSC for Investors is parallel to that of the original Canadian Securities Course (CSC®) that financial professionals take as the foundation course for their careers in financial services. By working off of a similar foundation to that of a financial professional, you can get the most out of your partnership with your financial advisor – working together to have better discussions, make informed decisions and maximize your investment potential.
What skills will you develop?
By completing the CSC® for Investors, you will:
- Learn the nuances of the investing world so you can be actively involved in your financial future
- Gather the intelligence you need to make smart investment decisions
- Feel confident in your newfound financial understanding
- Get the most out of your relationship with your financial advisor
Who should enrol?
The CSC® for Investors is for individuals looking to boost their personal knowledge about investing, and completing the course does not lead to licensing and registration requirements with regulatory authorities. If you are interested in a financial services career, you must take the original Canadian Securities Course (CSC®) in order to meet regulatory licensing and registration requirements.
