Question from my 54 year old dad...

He's 54 and has a degree in business management and is looking to take some refresher courses or maybe get a certificate in finance. Can anyone point out some good online classes or programs that would stay specific with just the finance part of business? Thanks

 

Hi Joey (and Joeys Dad) - Look at these

Not a university but fairly cheap.

Is his degree an MBA or undergrad degree?

If it's an MBA, East Carolina U. offers a graduate certificate in finance.

There is no credit or certicates awarded but maybe your father can update his knowledge using courseware from MIT

If it's just a refresher then AJU (www.aju.edu) would be the most affordable option out there.

They offer the following finance courses:

BA526 Financial Institutions and Market
BA530 Investment Analysis and Portfolio Management
BA533 Risk Analysis and Insurance
MG631 International Financial Management

 

Golden Gate University has a graduate certificate in finance, but it is about $1,900 a class.

Just a BBA
