Course Goals

The Options Institute classes are designed to help brokers create a solid knowledge of options fundamentals and pricing. Ultimately, brokers should be able to determine an options strategy and manage their clients' options positions. Specifically, we teach brokers how to:

  • Cope with changing market conditions
  • Adjust positions
  • Educate clients about options strategies

Continuing Education Requirement

With the advent of the Securities Industry Continuing Education Program for registered persons, brokers using options need to know about changes in the options marketplace and new options products.
