A course on investing on the stockmarket

October 2, 2014 By John Kingham

Sensible educational courses on how to invest on the stockmarket are few and far between, which is why I’m happy to promote a new course which will be available soon at the Robertsbridge Community College in East Sussex.

Investing on the Stockmarket

The course will provide guidance for those who wish to take control of their financial future. Initially there will be two separate courses:

  1. A morning course starting on 3rd November, and
  2. An evening course which starts on 6th November.

Each course consists of five weekly sessions of two hours each. There are plans to repeat the courses starting in June, 2015 if there is still a demand.

The tutor for the course is Ray Williamson, a private investor for over 40 years.

Speaking about the course, Ray said, “I have often wondered why courses along these lines are almost non-existent in the UK – I have searched the internet and can find no others like it. The course will be aimed primarily – but not exclusively – at beginners and those with smaller amounts to invest. We will be looking, first of all, for value stocks and investment trusts of quality that have the potential to secure participants` financial futures. There are risks as well, of course, and guidance will also be given on how to mitigate those.”

You can find the course website here: Investing on the stockmarket

And the community college website is: www.robertsbridge.org.uk

    Hi John

    FYI the links to the course website appear to be broken?

    Kind regards

      Hi Sean, unfortunately the course was cancelled due to lack of demand. I think this sort of thing is only likely to work in London or via the internet.

After 13 years of writing about UK stocks on this website I have now moved to my new home at:

UKDividendStocks.com

Please head over to the new site.

Thank you

John Kingham
